Thank ye all kindly. :) It -is- cold out here! grin Actually, it wasn't too bad that day.. about 14F (-10C), and the day after that was 28F (-2C) (which is actually pretty warm for late January.. we usually start hitting the -4Fs (-20C) to -31Fs (-35C) around this time, but it's been raining rather than snowing lately). You get used to it though. It's all a balanced matter of clothing thickness and cursing at winter. Slynky, you're from Montreal right? You know what I'm talking about. :P (and I like abstractieen too.. better than ovaltine!) Once Spring comes around, I'll put up pics from the Tulip Festival to show the huge contrast.. I'll have to find a really good film to bring out all the colors, too. Good thing I bought all kinds to experiment with. :P - darkpen
