Stay warm TRF

It’s days like this week where I am thankful for remote start on my F150..
Warm and toasty when I get in

We rarely get mid 20’s around here.. yes, Southerners are wimps, except for hurricanes

Is that Celsius?

When I think about it being cold, it's -20F.

When the ears start freezing off the cows you know it's cold out.

Do you have booties and muffs for your pup?

Norma prefers to go in her natural coat.

We do use booties if we walk her in town (sidewalk salt/slush).

She just loves the snow

we just moved into a new office in August (new construction). Got two HVAC units for our building, which is roughly 5000sq ft, single story, with about a 2000sq ft warehouse. Half of the building has been having A/C issues since day one. Today, the other half of the building is having heating issues. Pretty fun.

I’ve always wondered why she hasn’t a coat on her as you said she seems to love the chill on her coat.

These last few winters have been very mild in Minnesota. Seems normal out there for the next few days. Lows in single digits and highs in the teens. NO snow at all. It's absolutely barren outside.
