Bitter Cold

As I am on my second winter in Pennsylvania I decided that snow boots needed to happen. So after searching everywhere for the perfect pair I finally found them at Payless. That was surprising to me.
So it snowed (a tiny bit) yesterday so I thought it would be the perfect excuse to try them out. By walking to work, which takes about forty minutes.
The walk itself was great. I really enjoyed it. The fact it was 21 degrees and felt like -5 and there were 45 mph wind gusts made it a little bit arctic feeling. At times I wondered how cold your legs have to be before they freeze and fall off. At other times I wondered if I stopped at some strangers house and asked if I could just warm up there for a minute if that would make me weak. Either way I made it successfully, with bright red checks and bright red legs.
My husband was a star and picked me up after work so I didn't have to make the return journey.
That was this years first winter adventure.
