Freezer Bowl

[grampahol]

I was never at a game in 50 below anything, but I did get caught hitch hiking in a few places where the temperatures dipped well into negative territories.  Let me tell ya..standing on a freeway in subzero temperatures in the wind when a semi comes barreling past at 3-4 feet away is just nowhere near as much fun as it might seem. That's wind you just can't escape from. I made it to Montana in a blizzard once.. Why I'm still alive and able to even mention is is in itself pretty amazing.. LOL I did learn some helpful cold weather survival things along the way back in those days.. Cut holes in your sweaters and long sleeved wear to hook over your thumbs and/or cut up socks to cover your arms, wrists in particular. If you ever have to sleep in a sleeping bag in freezing weather TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF..Otherwise the sweat will freeze on your socks inside your shoes.. Whatever you do, don't just give up and sit down and expect the cold to go away. You'll eventually fall sleep after you go numb and freeze to death.. Keep moving if at all possible.
