I have very clear memories of standing out waiting for the school bus in
1950s with temps -35 or so.  In those days females were required to wear
skirts to school as well.  Sometimes the bus didn't come too promptly
either!!!!!  Builds character.
I would think it builds ice, too.  Why couldn't I have stayed in California?
