About a quarter-inch of frost and ice. *That* would have woke me up in a
hurry.

Ice??? I had my Sandpiper 565 sailboat out yesterday afternoon for a
great sail. Lots of wind and sun, although I have to admit it did get
cool as the sun lowered in the sky. Almost time to put the shorts &
short sleeved shirts away. Because my sailboat sits a bit high on it's
trailer I had to wade into the salt water to about groin height to help
line it up. It wasn't bad.
