OK, it was 18 out there but I had to get something from the car...

18 isn't so bad for the 50 foot or so run to the car, so I just threw on a robe. More for modesty than the elements.

Half way to the car the 30mph gusts hit! Tough to believe those Scottish ancestors went to war in kilts in this kind of weather. (No underwear, too)

Poured some Bourbon in the coffee and I'm still shivering.
