Cold Realities: Prepare or Get Caught Short

David Lais of the Old Farmer’s Almanac warns we "should either stock up on long underwear or patch any holes in our existing suits of long johns or do both."  Breathlessly, he cautions, "I repeat, update your winter wardrobe soon with several suits of warm long underwear. There’s a good chance that union suits will be in short supply come January."

Is a September Surprise in store for us?  Fall comes a callin' today! Don't let it ketch ya not wearin' your longhandles! The first day of fall is today, Sunday, Sept. 22nd. The autumn equinox official beginning time: 8:44 a.m. That means, Jack Frost is just around the corner for nearly all of us. In fact, snow is falling in the Rocky Mountains at this moment. Better have your union suits washed, dried, ironed and ready to wear. 

Prepare now for a cold winter to avoid being surprised!! If not, when winter knocks on your door, you'll be caught unaware without enough underwear ( the long, buttoned-up, back door variety, that is) to get you through the coming months.

 

Don't procrastinate. It's Union Suit time!!
