    Why did I move to Panama  :dunno:
    I was working outside in the oil patch @ -56C or -76F before I moved here roughly twice as far from freezing as it above freezing here

    Brad I think you have a good point.... I've been working in this stuff forever (granted not that stuff Neil talks about) I'll be 60 real soon. And its done its  damage , my feet were frozen and I was in the office all day. Hands freeze up quick to. To much nerve damage. They don't make socks heavy enough!  :grinyes: As for heat bring it...... I got A/C if it gets too bad.  :thumbsup:

    Actually it only went down to -34* overnight. With wind chill factored in, -43*.
    Maybe a little global warming wouldn't be tooo bad. :bigsmile:
    I'm with Bigs. Bring on the heat! Beer and A/C make it bearable.

    Hey we're suffering in South Florida as well.  We’re feeling the cold.  I had to finally turn on the heat last night for the first time this year, if only for an hour.  Was down to 36 degrees this morning.  But up in the 50’s later today.  Oh and back up into the 70’s this weekend.  Yep - I’m rubbing it in.   :roflsmiley:

    I moved here from Maryland a few years ago and working in the garage at night lately with it being 55 degrees is awesome.  In the summer when it's 120 degrees not so much.  

    I know what you mean. I put in one of those window AC units in the garage that can blow heat too ... just in case.   :smilielol:
