Cold Is as Cold Does

Usually, when the temperature is below 32 degrees,  the kids at our school are encouraged to come inside as they arrive to wait in the warm building for the beginning of the day. After a couple of weeks of weather in the teens, though, this morning was a balmy 30, and hundreds of students waited for the bell outside with open coats. Whether preoccupied with their devices, chatting with friends, or playing football and basketball, they were apparently not bothered by the sub-freezing temperature, and tomorrow? When it hits 50? Some will even wear shorts.

And I might leave my mittens at home.
