atvalaska,

I'm not sure how you do it man.  Here in Michigan we once in awhile flirt with -5 to -10 maybe once or twice all year usually at night.  I have been out in these conditions for a few hours one time snow blowing the drive and the yard out back for a wood delivery.  I swear I had frost bite on my tongue the next morning, it was raw.. looked like it was burned.  Not fun

Better bring that bottle in where it is warm long enough to drink it, drink it and it will help warm you up!

I remember in the early 80's when I used to snowmobile a lot my brothers and I would take a bottle of "spirits" with us and warm up a bit during the ride.  The problem with that is, once you get back inside and begin to warm up, the stuff will hit you like a ton of bricks; you'd better be sitting down because if you're not, you will be on your backside before you know it.  Ahhhh, the memories...   :)  Roger

I never claimed to be an angle. >:D  I guess that's why I go to church, now that I'm older and wiser; well, older anyway.  :D  Roger

Very well said Roger, we do agree on an awful lot of things, many years ago I had a green tractor too but I immediately painted it yellow >:D
