These trees are c-c-cold....

Although I hear reports of a big snowstorm happening downstate we merely have plummeting temps. I went out to the public library and then to the Dollar Store to get birthday goodies for two friends who are having parties soon. The Goal: to get back home before Zero F not C. I just made it too.
It's going to be "right chilly" as they say in the country as we are expecting -13 to -15ºF without the windchill. No idea how cold it will really be out there tonight.
These trees (in natural colour) just stood out there in the back looking right chilly, too. Good thing they have a thick skin.
