You knew darn well what kind of responses you were asking for when you hit the Submit button, LOL. I'll spare you the comments I was thinking up earlier since I was pretty much saying the same thing as you when it dipped down to 17F the other day... brrrrrrrrrrrr, of course it was the wind that swept away the life out of my limbs -- walking out in shorts & t-shirt didn't help matters either.
An automatic chicken door... that's what you want from Santa. I still have to get up in the morning for water and such (opening inside door) but during the afternoon when the door opens they sure love it! I resisted dropping the cash until the time change which made outside time less than 30 minutes a day.
