Purplecat, you have to move south......if you don't like the snow or the
cold!
Come to where it's always sunny (average temperature is about 80 year
round) and sandy beaches all over the island.

same here. I hated it when they'd flock to our small town in Az, now I
have the highest respect for their poor old bodies that can't handle
this. It seriously hurts sometimes. My ears wanna break off and we all
know how it feels on the hands. I'm new to this crap, so I've gotta
figure out just what kinda attire to get for work. I'm really freazin
out there sometimes. YES I'M WHINING DAMMIT!!!!! I'm starting to LOVE
to HATE work!!

Chuckee, my old bones are older than your old bones. so there. Try the
cherry juice trick for the achin bones. some say it works.
I like the winter though, I like driving in it, snowmobiling,
working, ect. I have to resight my target rifles every winter. why? in
the cold the barrel will droop less and the air is denser. Also the
powder burns different.

I think in some ways it is colder surther south, loke ohio. When it
is real cold here, its a dry cold. as long as there isnt any wind it
really isnt bad as long as you dress right. Further south it is a wet
cold that soaks thru everything.
IF YOU WANT THE RIGHT GEAR FOR WINTER OPERATIONS, go to the army
surplus and get a US navy watch cap. make sure it is a real military
wool watch cap.it will say Cap, watch, wool on the white tag. they look
cool and are very warm. being in the cold is less about fashion than
about staying warm, however. another good item from uncle sam is US ARMY
Officers gloves. They are black leather gloves with a wool liner. They
also look good and work well. DONT FORGET THE BOOTS. If you dont spend
100.00 on them they will be cold.
Rambill your winter survival expert.
