You guys already have me shivering in anticipation for the next few months... :lol sign. But yesterday we got a load of fuel oil delivered up here to the cabin so I will be good for late hunting season. The fireplace is nice, but I need more wood for it so the fuel oil makes me feel better.

I have a 2 night business trip to Chicago next week, and I think I am going to breakout the longjohns before I head up that way. That wind up there cuts deeper than most of my knives...lol

Ray, better take a good wool coat or a leather jacket if you have one, I'm Chicago born and bred, left to go to USMC boot camp in 1973, haven't lived there since, leather or a couple layers are the only way to cut that wind, especially if your going to be downtown or along the lake, good luck and safe trip!

Hey Beaver. Semper Fi, my friend! I am here in the Windy City,,,and it is ust that. The temp isn't that bad, but the wind will definitely get ya. Fortunately, I am inside most of the time. I fly back home tomorrow so I think I will make it without frostbite, at least on this trip.
