I'm in South Carolina and it was 17 degrees last night.  No snow, just freaking cold wind.  My heating pad doubled as a foot and hand warmer last night. I put blankets in the clothes dryer and stayed toasty.

Gala - ten degrees, you say?  When I got up it was -10 here, and it barely hit 0 today.  Now if anyone is entitled to hot chocolate or Irish coffee it's moi :)<BR>
<BR>
On the plus side, it made it a good day to stay inside and get all the Christmas goodies made (except the fudge, that's tomorrow).  Yum yum yum.

Hmm...yeah...that's one of many reasons I don't miss the Northeast very much. Currently 53 degrees and sunny (what else?!) here in Albuquerque.<BR>

Happy Holidays, everyone!
