Yup, when I was talking with my father on the phone last night who is at my parents place in Southwest Florida(Port Charlotte) right now, he was complaining that because of the cold he's having to push back his tee time from his ususal 8AMish time to around 11 AND wear both a sweater and windshirt!

I tried not to laugh too loud when I heard that one!
