Love might be a bit heavy. Embrace yes or maybe that is endure it

. I'm like a squirrel. Most of the winter I'm out and playing but when it gets snappy, I head for the nest. We haven't had a square tire morning yet this year.

Even the brave hate going out in those temps. I remember an exercise when I was in the military 82' I believe. I was in the habit of bringing a bottle of spirits along for the odd nightcap. That bottle of whiskey almost froze solid. It was slushy with a few liquid ounces at the bottom of the bottle. We were sleeping in tents.....That was cold. They had to med evac a bunch of our Southern bretheren as they froze on the way down after jumping.
28' is just fine shootin temperature.
