Studly Doright and I have been in the Tallahassee area for four years now, having moved from central Illinois where we resided for eight years. This morning I realized I’d finally acclimated to the weather here when upon hearing that the high in our area would be in the mid-60’s today, I said to myself, “Better wear a sweater!”
I’m not complaining. I’ll wear that sweater all winter thanking my lucky stars I don’t need a heavy jacket and snow boots.

Truly everything is relative. We lived in North Dakota for four years where an ambient temperature of 34° on a winter day had folks digging out their bikinis and sunscreen.
Even in the mid-west the definition of cold is a matter of season. Forty degrees in November feels cool, while the same temperature in February is positively balmy.

The most difficult part for me when the weather turns cool is having to put away my flip flops. Although, I have been known to pull this stunt:

But only to take out the garbage. If I go downtown, I’ll put my pants on….
No matter where you are, I hope you have a great day. Pants optional.
Peace, people.
Have a great day. Cold is all relative. Used to s ee that in Greece. When it dropped from some ridic temp to what would be a boiling day here in unsunny Scotland, , folks were shivering.

Yes! When we were in Ireland the folks kept talking about their warm weather, meanwhile, we were all wearing jackets.

Yep. You’re right. It is what folks are used to. And also when it’s been hot and it notches down from 90 to 70 people do shiver!
