Frost Bitten!

So this past week the average temp. has been -30. It's even gotten as low as -42!! Needless to say its cold! So Cold that ice forms in the window and doors inside the house. It's so cold outside it freezes the condestaion on the inside!! Well while this cold spell was going on Howie had to go out in the "field" and pretend that he had ejected and surrvive for 2 nights out in the cold. They send him to school for a few days then let them out in the wild to put their skills to the test. He left Wednesday morning and I would see him Friday. Well Thursday I got call to come get him because he ended up with frost bite on his toe. He has been in a lot of pain and hoping it will go away soon. There isn't much you can do with frost bite except wait for it to go away on its own. Hopefully he won't have to hobble around to much longer.

foot swollen from one little toe?!?


The yellow blister thing on his big toe is the "frost bite"
