How cold is that? If you don’t have a sled, no prob.

How cold might it be? Well, for instance, what in the world can you do for fun outside with the children when it’s  -10 degrees?

By the time we get home to Minnesota tonight, it will have been up to 20-something degrees today–practically sunbathing weather. But Minnesota is still shivering from the cold last week.

How cold was it? You’d have been glad to have  a clothes dryer and not have to hang your laundry out to dry.
