I want to come when you call it cool, like 15' - 22'C please - you know light sweater to tee-shirt weather.

Yeh ....T shirt weather is nice, but "noshirt" weather is the go!! Grin

besides t shirt weather starts at 25c Grin

I have camped in the snow, in Barrington Tops & it was worth doing.....for the experience. the one thing I did notice though, is that the population of wild pigs were dead easy to track!! Roll Eyes

Gotta chuckle guys. & I got news fer ya, tho I think the Furph, the PD and the DB knew it. Fer better 'n two weeks I was living out o' my truck camper. Yep, been on a trip, sleeping in nice cool temps fer a variety of reasons. Nada problemo.

Granted it wasn't strictly a holiday, and it wasn't for my employer. But because I wanted to spread out and I found the TC not quite spacious for my expanse of paper, I compromised. I ate in restaurants.

I had it all planned. I was going to take the cast iron, the Camp Oven Mate, etc. and I was hoping to quit 'work' each day at least an hour before dark.

Worse, even I WallyDocked - urban overnight parked at Walmart - more than I boondocked in the back o beyond. Me brain just had too much on the go to hang out in the outdoors the way I'd pictured doing this trip. I'm gonna have to be retired before I do that.

So, I was sort of half practicing what I preach. Yep, the dish lickers thoroughly enjoyed a run or two in the snow too and the snow stuck to the TC windows a time or two and I started to regret no bringing snow boots, but then the temps went up to 13'C and put paid to that stuff.

'Course, I got off the ferry from Nova Scotia this morning and had to face interesting winds: http://www.islandnet.com/~see/weather/almanac/arc2005/alm05dec.htm . Wreckhouse delivering it's challenge it was. Not bad mind you for those who know, but enough to produce and alert or two, after I was through, of course. & up towards home, I could see where there had been more of the white stuff that I had missed.

& I will concede that I have what I call adrenalin drives each year, because I drive home in interesting snow conditions a few times a year. Those I shan't mind leaving behind.

But 25' for tee shirt weather, HUH!!!! Nah, that's air conditioning weather. Tongue

Furph, I haven't put myself into a place where I had to endure, sweat through even 36'C since 1988. No need of that, not voluntarily, not at all.

That's Cry

for me. Or Embarrassed

Or

& definitely Shocked

especially

Why in the world put yourself through a toughing up course for heat? Can yer answer me that?

Have you got a root cellar, boy? 18"/0.5 m thick of pure rock & or soil (clay)? That would be nice. Maybe one of Mike's mines.

Cool
