Could Have Called It the Snow King

After a hard morning shovelling snow, my Air King asked me if it could play in my snow piles. It worked so hard that I had to oblige

No snow of note in Northern NJ

Media warned of an icecopolypse, nothing happened. But a high of 14F tomorrow.

Why not let the AK have some fun in the snow ? Nothin’ wrong with that.

My Polar enjoys this weather much more than the car or I do. A high of -3F is forecast for tomorrow.

My Polar and the view of snowy Toronto from the train today. Glad I chose to take the train in today and not drive.

There is something very unique about the air king coupled with its heritage that just makes me love this watch. Great pic of it in the snow!

Ordered a Pepsi with ice today!





The windchills in Toronto today were just brutal. My hands took a good 5 minutes to warm up after taking these pics.

Pepsi with ice hahahha love it!

We were lucky in new England today. It snowed and sleeted today but didn't get super cold. It's around 11F (-11.6C) right now. I've ridden a motorcycle in colder. I couldn't do that Toronto weather haha.

I am in Houston.... I received a call on Friday to warn of extreme low temps and to exercise caution while driving. The low was 33.

HAHAHA that's not even freezing! I mean, yes of course be careful on the road, but that's definitely not an 'extreme low temp'
