Here’s a quick post about feeling the recent arctic freeze.<\/p>\n

It’s freezing cold outside! If you are on the East Coast, you know, with double-digit negative numbers that we’ve experienced!!<\/p>\n

Fortunately, in the DC area, we’re not digging out of snow, although, I wish we were!<\/p>\n

Instead, I’ll post the first frozen image of our fountain. This was from a month ago when it was only 32 degrees. I thought the swirling formations were really unusual and I wasn’t sure what would have caused them particularly since the fountain wasn’t running.<\/p>\n

Look closely, is it just organic swirls, or God’s way of saying, “Hey, humans, you can’t control this weather. My finger is on the trigger!” Do you see a thumb and possible hand? Hmmm…Was this a warning of the arctic freeze to come…?<\/p>\n

Fall and winter are some of my favorite months but I have adverse physical reactions to both. Raynauds kicks in when just walking by the frozen food section in the grocery store, so you can imagine what happens when it is negative 10 degrees and feels like negative 20 outside. In fact, I’m postponing an onsite project until it warms a bit because I may not be able to feel the brushes.<\/p>\n

Managing the cold could be fun as long as I could stay internally warm.<\/p>\n

If I were living in a very cold place, like Iceland, I’d want to enjoy it here, in a Bubble Igloo Hut<\/a>. It gets a 5-star rating<\/a>, btw.<\/p>\n

I’ll have to finally write about my 2017 Scandinavian heritage trip this year because I’ve already been to Gullfoss waterfall and the Blue Lagoon. The views were exceptional.<\/p>\n

When I return, I think I’ll take this Golden Circle Tour<\/a> and test the Bubble for viewing the Northern Lights. It’s on my bucket list, which I’m thinking more about accomplishing lately.<\/p>\n

It’s either the Bubble Igloo or other top places to stay and watch the Northern Lights<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Like in Finland, where the glass igloo Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort <\/a>is located, described on Thrillist<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Either way, I’ll be happy and no longer feeling the arctic freeze.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, if you are traveling outside, please take care to prevent freezing.<\/p>\n

This Podcast from Outside Magazine<\/a> is “chilling” and will make you remember how easily it can happen. (Scroll to the bottom to listen to Episode 1, #55 on the list)<\/p>\n

Also, don’t run in the cold either. Just watch the movie Wind River,<\/a> and you’ll see what can happen in severe cold. Stay warm. Stay safe.<\/p>\n
