LOL, A day or two?????
You Southern Boy's crack me up when you talk about cold weather.
Here's something for your perspective. My first year in the Canadian Army ('80), we went on an exercise in January. The average temperature for the two weeks was -40'C/-40'F (they're the same at -40) with the coldest at -55'C for a day or two. And get this..... We slept in tents!!!!!!!!! [:@]
And yes I am a lucky man. Thank you!
