And I thought we were going to be cold tonight in the mid to lower 40's. We do get below freezing but it doesn't last very long. Usually about 14 days scattered thru January and February. But I remember all too well blizzards, ice, and just being frozen all winter. I'm originally from Rhode Island. Curl up with that quilt that needs the binding hand stitched and you will be warm in the process of having that quilt in your lap covering you. Just a thought.
