Greetings from the South!

Nice and toasty inside. Open bars set up all over. Extra activities/lectures. I’m quite enjoying it!

No snow here.

OTOH, it's 5 degrees out there with wind chills of -25....

Lucky you!

It must be cold in NO because it's in the low '40's here.

Yikes, @Steve-Miller those pics look cold!! Glad you're enjoying yourself!

I miss the part of my old job in Japan, where I took a ferry (or small boat, depending) several times a month to visit schools that were out on islands.

Nice boat!

Sounds like you're having fun, and you're getting to see a historic weather event. The videos of blizzard conditions from New Orleans are amazing!

[Steve Miller]

Most of the crew is from NOLA where it hasn’t snowed since the 60’s. Many of them have never seen snow before and can’t stop staring at it!

Ha! Yesterday was the 40th anniversary of Chicago's lowest temperature.

Think it was cold Monday? It was nothing like the history-making temperatures on this date 40 years ago.

On January 20, 1985, the mercury bottomed out at a bone chilling -27 degrees and was accompanied by a brutally cold wind chill of – 57 degrees.

Cool! Except that weather looks nasty!

Say Hi to Sam Clemens for me!

Is there a banjo and player on the boat? Riverboats need banjos.
Glad you are toasty and warm. Hope you have a great time.
