Lighting the World on Fire

As I exited the school this evening, I was greeted by this breathtaking view. The weather has been beautiful for the past few days, so much so that today when I took my gloves off to take this picture I was surprised to realize that my hands didn’t feel an instant stinging cold on my skin. Then again it has warmed up to -7 degrees, which is practically balmy since there was little to no wind…and your used to -30 and lower temperatures. During the winter here we frequently get wind chills of -56 degrees, and lower. There’s a whole new meaning to the word “cold” in temperatures like that.
