An ice axe is razor sharp, I've seen video of people cutting themselves just unpacking one. They make formidable weapons. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| DRich Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 51 Posts: 4967 | It is 39 degrees here in Las Vegas this morning. Today isthe first day I have had to put pants and shoes on since March. I don't like it, I only want to wear shorts and sandals. Fortunately, I have three trips to Florida planned in November. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

I have never worn long johns golfing. I take that back I did play snow golf one time, you play with purple balls and not too much snow. It is pretty easy to lose your ball. The drop in temperature always makes you cold. I am always colder in the Fall when it first gets cold. In the Spring I can be out in the exact same temperature and feel warm. I have been skiing in shorts and T-shirt in the spring. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

Seriously? I live in MI and haven't worn them since I was 10. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Yes, I am always cold. I can't even sit in my house without a blanket on if the wife has the temperature set at 76. She is not allowed to put it lower than that, that is our compromise temperature. i would rather sit in a 88 degree house than a 75 degree house.
