Trevor and I saw the bank sign register this morning's temperature at 3 degrees. The snow from last Thursday night still coats the ground; this morning it gleamed with frost and made a satisfying crunch as I walked to the garage. The sky was clear enough that we could see a hint of the Aurora Borealis dancing to the north of us on our drive.
The clear sky tonight portents more cold temperatures. While this might not bode so well for the various Halloween-esque festivities planned for later this week, it still fills my heart with joy. I know that my opinion is not shared by many, but cold weather is comforting to me.
Today, I probably looked like a crazy man, out in the cold in my exercise clothes (shorts and t-shirt) with my large snow boots and gloves while I tried to untangle our puppies' chains. I wasn't out there long, and the heat from my earlier workout was still burning through me, but I did take a moment to appreciate the strangeness of it.
We will have to see what sort of winter this year delivers.
