I’ve never heard of the Polar Bear Club. Although I’m in total agreement that this is, indeed, a great post. I for one, will not be signing up to become a member,
honorary or otherwise!

Well, yesterday morning it was 34f at my house at 8:00am. My car was covered with about 1/4inch of ice and the yard was completely frosted. There was ice on the roads, too.

Have I mentioned how glad I am that the furnace is working?

A side note to my original post.

As I left my house this morning at 8AM to take my daughter to school, we noticed that our front yard was covered with frost. This was the first frost of the season. The thermometer in my car said the outside temp was 39f, so it was probably in the low 30’sf during the night.

We were very glad that the heater for the house was back in service again.

Chilly Willy for Southern California. Brr….

Get those systems checked and serviced before winter is upon us in full force.
