On the first day of winter so cold I feel the need to put on longjohns you’ll find me a very happy man - for more than one reason.
First. I get to wear my old red longjohns and experience a special feeling, i.e., after owning them for about a dozen years, I’m finally feeling I’m getting my money’s worth.

Second. The cold weather that drives me to put on a second layer might also allow the snow to stay on the ground and upon rooftops, tree branches and fence posts and railings.

When the snow piles up in the backyard I tend to cut back on my hours in the workshop and increase hours on other pursuits.
I’ll read, write, draw, think and stay a bit longer in a snug corner of a local coffee shop. Winter is a time to hibernate, after all.
Once Christmas is over, hear me snore!
