This afternoon I walked to a local bank. On the way back I cut through a neighborhood and heard some young men playing. I looked across a field covered in snow/ice. There were about 10 young men (boys) playing FOOTBALL on the field. Some of them had taken off their coats, even though it was only around 12 degrees.
I couldn’t believe them outside playing when it was so cold. I’m sorry I didn’t have my camera to record the event.

I can’t image just how cold that would be.. If it gets down to 25 degrees in NC. I am putting on all the clothes I can find. Thanks for all the interesting letters. P. Miller

Sounds like another ice bowl.

It was about 68 today in East Texas. I drove out and fed/talked to my cows in Ben Wheeler (Near Canton). S’posed 2 b over 70 tomorrow! Nice winter!! 10 years ago we were in Russia (acquiring two more kids) and got to see plenty of snow. -Joe Eggers

Mrs. Miller, It actually “felt” warmer yesterday…
Mark and Pam, I don’t even know how they were standing up, let alone running!
Joe, 68! We probably won’t see that temp until May! Congrats on those kids!
