  In Alaska I used to walk to work 2 miles, in the snow, in the dark,
  with ice freezing on my legs and crackling with each step. In Arizona
  once, when tubing down the salt, a friend had an accident and was too
  afraid to continue. She nearly drowned, so I can understand that. So
  we ended up walking through the desert for a couple of hours to get
  to the road. I was not wearing any shoes. Yes, it was summer too.
  Dare I even mention my archaeological digs way back when I was
  younger, digging square holes in 115° heat. Im beginning to think Ive
  made some poor choices in my life. Lol. Sits at computer now in nice
  comfy air conditioning, with a nice cold soda.

    Ah yes, the old days, when it was so much hotter -- or colder,
    depending
    upon where you lived. I grew up in the upper Midwest, and back
    then the
    snow in the winter was waist deep or higher for months at a time
    in the
    winter. Yep, I had to walk to school, and it was 3 -- no, 4
    miles, and it
    was uphill both ways.
