The temperature is going up to -7 tomorrow....but it's supposed to snow again.
Poor iguanas and sea turtles and now frogs I guess won't be warmer yet though. Sad.

Interesting thing about how temperature affected some lizards...

You will all be glad to know that winter has left South Florida, and I can once again wear my t-shirts and flip flops with comfort. I do have to wear a sweater in the mornings, but by the afternoon that's gone

This world is one crazy place lately!

It's less than 5C here now.
So you didn't even get to make a snowman??
Slide down a hill in a toboggan?

Last time I sled down a hill in a toboggan I broke my back. Sledding is the devil.

It was the dumbest thing that's ever happened to me In my life. Went off a little jump. I even slowed way down cause I was t trying to be crazy or get hurt. Landed on my but sitting upright in it and my t-12 burst. It happened Dec 27 2015, this pic was an x-ray taken 4 months ago. Stick to snowboarding, it's less dangerous. Lol

Actually I'm too old now to be likely to do either! Hope your back is ok.

Thanks! Pain med free and back to residential contracting so I'd say I made a dang good recovery

 

[kinyonga]

@Cordawayconstruction ...that's good!

Well here we go again...plus 10C yesterday and ALL the snow was gone and people were out in shoes and light coats. Today...down to freezing and 10 to 15 cm of snow by the time it was dark...back to winter boots and winter coats and scarves!! Roads were horrible and sidewalks slippery too. That's life in southern Ontario for ya!
