COLDNESS: This has been one long spell of cold temperatures

Seeing the photos of the firefighters hard at work in single-digit temperatures at the Jan. 8 house fire in Kennett Township, I reminded of how gutsy these folks are. Can you imagine getting out of your warm bed, before dawn, to rush to the firehouse, head to the fire scene and then work outside -- with water, no less?
Hats off, although that might not be an apt phrase, to the farmers, horse trainers, waste oil collectors, cops, crossing guards, and everyone else who works outside no matter what the weather. I could barely work up the gumption to go outside and put out seed and suet for the birds.
