it's been mild a mild fall here in norther colorado, not many nights below freezing and not even a dusting of snow. i think i've turned on the heat twice. but that's all about to change.
i grew up here and have weathered some shitty winters, but last year was almost too much for me and i am not stoked about this. thank gods that, unlike last winter, i have a functioning heater in my car.

Edited to add: Didn't turn on the AC all day! Still had to use the ceiling fans though.
