There may be ice in my beard, but there's a smile on my face. It's been a cold start so far, and I'm hoping for the warming that the sunshine and the afternoon will bring. For now, I'm in good spirits and looking forward to the ride today. I also now know why Santa's cheeks are so rosy. I always thought it was high blood pressure from being so fat. Turns out it all that riding in an "open sleigh".
