The Cold Months

Exactly one year ago, I moved to Chicago to escape the heat and humidity of Tampa.  Yes, some call me crazy for leaving the tropical climate, but I see cold weather as a challenge: a challenge to stand up to mother nature's blustery blizzards and below-zero temperatures.  This year I'll be ready with numerous layers of clothing, from my ears to my toes.  One pair of gloves/socks/pants will not be enough to combat the wintry weather with all the miles I walk each week through the windy city.  I couldn't be more happy with the choice I made to move up north. 

Chicago's first significant snow begins in a few hours, and I'm eager to wake up to a transformed world.  I'll be strapping up my waterproof boots, and heading out with camera in hand to capture the beauty.
