I'm with Dave, I can handle heat much better than cold - althought I have expereinced more cold weather than anyone on this forum because i have lived longer and been exposed to more of it.
My first winter spent in cold weather was in Smokey Hill Army Air Base near Salina Kansas the winter of 1943 - talk about cold in tar paper covered board and batten barracks - snow would pile up inside barracks in cracks of doors and windows - one soldier always on duty digging coal from snow covered pile to fire pot bellied stove.
Nearly froze to death!
Colder than high Canadian Arctic but dressed for that!
Spent one winter December/January in Julesberg Colorado on O&G exoloration crew - new baby - diaper dropped on floor would freeze solid in few minutes.
Many winter trips to Calgary and few to Anchorage.
I can handle 100 degree temps much better than cold - I do outside work early and late but spoiled with AC - I grew up without - we had sleeping porches.
My DNA is pioneer stock - my ancestors moved from north to south, we left the weak and timid behind!
