It was cold! 10 degrees F or -12 C on Monday and Tuesday mornings, and never got above freezing. I'm going to do a little more shopping but believe it or not I'm having a hard time finding a balacalava.... Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places...? I know we were issued them as part of our artic gear when I was in Alaska, and I purchased a couple extras, but can I find one now? No! Would I like one? Oh yeah! Will I buy one on line? Probably not!!
