Cold, even by northeast standards.

Agreed. We're at 13, with little wind. But I'm thinking the golf balls would get so
cold I'd not want to carry them in my pocket.

Bottomed out at minus 10.4 degrees this morning at 5:30 am according to
my digital outdoor thermometer. Matched up closely to readings from the
National Weather Service.

When it warmed back up to minus 8, I took a drive down to the local
coffee/donut shop. Tires on truck had hard flat spots from sitting
overnight in the cold, causing it to bump, bump, bump, down the road.

Supposed to climb all the way up to about 14 degrees today. At least
that's *above* zero.

Our outdoor thermometer said 20F this morning although the weather service usually records a few degrees colder. Hope you don't pass that onto us.

Oh boy...now I feel really cold.
Local CBC says it's minus 12C but feels like minus 23C due to wind.
I'd better buy a new outdoor thermometer...or place the current one further from the house.

I can afford to buy a new boat, dummy.
Wife and I picked out one yesterday at the local boat show.

So? Come on...tell us more. Pictures?

Here I've spent hours reading and listening to computer sound systems, and you're
doing something constructive!

Without consulting your buddies?
What's wrong with your old boat other than a little cosmetic rot.
Wasn't too long ago you were singing it's praises.
Two footitis isn't bad when you have a little boat but once you get to
20 ft. costs go up exponentially.

Nice! Does it have a hull guarantee, big spender? Did you find some
sucker to buy your current disaster?
