you know you live in Colorado when...

...you wake up to a snowstorm, and in the middle of the afternoon go for a run in t-shirt and shorts.

Oh,that brings back some memories... back in the day, I recall when it got above 35 or so was when the jackets (as opposed to the *coats* donchaknow) went on. It never occurred to me that it was the low humidity that made it feel warmer. I always figured it was the high altitude just getting me that much closer to the sun :-)

Well, considering that we are closer to the sun in winter than in the summer and don't feel any warmer, you know there are other things at play!

Humidity makes you feel hotter in the summer and colder in the winter. Boo humidity. Although it also makes my hair prettier and I don't have to compulsively moisturize. Hmm.

(Right now it is snowing. So humidity ~ 100%. :-)
