[Leica] Chilly Morning Walk

[Aram Langhans]

With some new snow, winds gusts about 20mph and the thermometer at about 
16F, we decided to go for a walk.  Testing the Q2 in adverse conditions.

First thing is to bundle up.

Not a lot of snow, and the winds kept the street mostly bare, so walking 
was easy.  Some drifts in spots, but most of the drifts are against the 
houses and driveways.

A neighbor got to use his new toy.

 From the other side he buried me.  The Q2 survived.

Another neighbor's fountain seemed to have a problem, even with what 
looks like some anti-freeze.

Camera and Battery survived an hour in the cold dangling from my neck 
with no attempt to keep it warm.  We survived, too, with every attempt 
to keep us warm.

Comments welcome
