In a related vein...I took the golf cart to Publix last evening, wearing my usual shorts, t-shirt and sandals. Didn't think anything of it, until I got there and saw people wearing heavy coats, stocking caps and gloves. Guess you can take the boy out of Minnesota but it takes longer to take Minnesota out of the boy.

Of course, Mark Twain also wrote: "The coldest winter I ever spent was July in San Francisco"
