Perspective

It is sunny outside today. The temperature is 24, but feels like 10. In Minnesota or North Dakota this would be a beautiful warm winter day.

Here however, people are driving two blocks and bundled up like it is -20. Even when I was preparing for walking outside, Roger laughed at me because I wore two pairs of pants, two shirts a jacket, warm gloves and a stocking cap. I looked silly, but still felt cold on my walk. My legs are starting to warm up after 30 minutes indoors.

Nice and warm day to our families, cold to our friends here in Virginia...it's a matter of perspective.
