Below zero every night for a while now and not much warmer in the day. Hope everyone had an outstanding holiday. Lots of visitors up here, and for Christmas I got a 65 hour work week and bout the same for New Year's.

I'll never forget flying military from 74 degrees in Jackson, MS to a -13 in Denver. Stepped off the aircraft & my 1st deep breath was a coughing fit, like my lungs froze up. We were snowed in @ Estes Park.

It has been below zero for a few nights now here as well...makes me really appreciate the pellet furnace as we have been above 80* in the house. I cant wait to sell this place and move somewhere warmer!

Haha! Just wait Packerbacker, it gets better. I think we'll see some 30 and 40 belows this year like in the past. Maybe it'll kill the pine beetles. Believe me, an educated person cannot discern much difference in 5 below and 20 below. 30 above is t-shirt weather here. River Rat, Denver is on the front range and the -13 probably shut them down. Their temps are usually higher than here a mile up. They got a foot of snow once that shut the city and airport down and all of us in the high country just died laughin, cause we seen a foot of snow fall in less than 3 hours and still made it to work. We'll take the cold if it brings enough snow to break the drought here in the mountains.

RGINN,

If you would like to get warm, go to Alaska. Yes Amigo Sitka, Alaska is much warmer, it rarely gets below freezing. Get a rest from snow shoveling. The lowest temperature ever recorded there was six degrees below zero.
