I just jumped in the golf cart and cruised down to Lake Sumter Landing to check out the last set of the band Penta (I heard from multiple sources they are worth a listen). Arrived at 8:10 and learned the remaining show had been cancelled because of cold temperatures. Really, my outdoor thermostat says it’s 51 degrees outside and it wasn’t even cold enough to flip up the windshield for the ride. Is this place going soft and becoming Florida’s wimpiest hometown? What ever happened to the old 45 degree rule?

It's 9:20 and 44° now. The band has to be able to play the instruments. While I used to play guitar in the (unheated) subways of Boston for several years for a living, I can't say it was easy to do. Plus, I was able to stop every couple of minutes to warm my fingers. You can't do that when you're being paid by the gig rather than accepting tips from people who feel like tipping you.

You can probably ask for a refund on your monthly fees? Hopefully you played some music on your Bluetooth golf cart speakers on the way home?

Have you ever tried to play musical instruments in cold weather. This is nothing new
