Thanks bjh. It's a cold one. Our high today is supposed to be 9 degrees but it's 5 right now. I was out cleaning up the yard in my new Canadian Weather Gear coat and I didn't feel a thing. I think I need to go for a walk today and get out of the house. The boys will have to stay behind. It's all about the gear.
