you are right about being pussified, my kid can't go to school, because it's too cold. wow. now granted the county roads have some dangerous drifts, but the only roads that are slick are in town and have been for two weeks. i don't know of any road county or otherwise that is closed. by the way he isn't a pussy, he's only 5, but he played in the snow most of the last two hours. i've been in it all day and i can tell ya it's cold. but if your not an idiot and dress for it you will survive. how do they ever do it in iowa and the dakotas?
