ON KEEPING WARM

A common sense approach to beating the cold and staying warm is in order!

  • Heat seeks cold!
  • Wind-chill is only what it feels on your flesh
  • Exploit solar: Open rooms to take in sunshine; pull blinds and curtains where there is no sunshine.
  • Keep doors closed to rooms not in use
  • WEAR LAYERS OF CLOTHING. I wear a knit hat for my bald head.
  • Wear gloves inside
  • Direct heat to where it is needed with circulating fans.
  • Reduce drafts by putting up blankets in doorways
  • Buy a wood-burning stove; heat with wood!
    Heats 2 rooms comfortably

  • Wear wool & cotton
  • Take an offensive to the cold. Right now I am watching "ELVIS.. Aloha from Hawaii, via Satellite. Pretend!"
  • Keep in motion.
  • Have some hot chocolate.
It is difficult to conceive how forebears endured winters in New England!
