Soooo, I leave the house for my walk this morning, it's 31 degrees (F)

and I'm all bundled up.

Here comes this teenager on her way to school, she's got summer-weight

capri pants on, no socks, light longsleeve T and soaking wet long hair!

Smart!!

:rolleyes:

I think some kids just do not think it cool to dress appropriate for cold weather.

Prolly but I must admit.. in the spring time here.. when the temp gets above like 45 degrees, we break out the shorts and tees.. and roll down the windows when we drive..

and if it gets above 50, people.(not saying who).. have been know to go skiing in shorts....
