In the Cold

A crazy winter of ice storms, arctic temperatures and surprise thaws finally gave way to a beautiful winter's day today, and so who could resist going out for a drive at lunch? Also the first drive of 2014!

-16°C today, and with 50 kmh winds, but the Land Rover was a composed as could be, except for doing a curious crab-like course on the pure polished ice sections of road as the wind tried to push us aside. The Kodiak 2 heater did its job, the cabin remained perfectly comfortable. The windows kept their good reputation, too, and did not fog up, which was a pleasant surprise, as the windows did on my regular car this morning.....

And of course, couldn't resist a few photographs.
