Coldest day so far; tear/sigh

I love to get outside and have fun. I usually don’t mind the weather and just deal with the rain, cold, snow or whatever it is. Tomorrow is shaping up to be one of the coldest days of the year. I am not happy. I have good cold weather gear but when it hits the single digits, it’s just not that safe to be out for very long. 

Several chef friends of mine are meeting tomorrow night at San Soo Gob San, a Korean BBQ restaurant on the North side of Chicago. Normally, I would put on my gear, hop on the bike and I’d be there in 25 minutes. If the temperatures fall as far as they are predicted to go, I will have to take the train. It’s not that bad and to see the guys, I’ll do it. I am just disappointed. 

I am lucky to live in one of the best cities in the world. It just happens to be one of the coldest too. Hey spring is only about 90 days away. I am counting not only the days but the minutes. Stay warm Chicago!
