  • we're still 31 or 32 for tonite. light snow turned to rain and dripping, melting snow. who could imagine Maine warmer than California in December. stay warm

    • I sure couldn't believe it, but here we are ... Been freezing temps for I quite a while, and I've had 26 for at least 5 nites. I am ready to move to Maine. Some Big Surians who moved to Maine several years ago are out here in Big Sur with family. Probably wishing they were warm in Maine!

    I do all the clothing layering.
    The only thing that really works is the mad bomber hat.

    It is amazing how keeping your head insulated keeps your body warm.
    It looks odd, but it works. :)

  • Just heard from a cousin in Medicine Hat, Alberta Canada where there are arctic conditions of minus 40 degrees farenhite. So bless our temps in Big Sur!
