: Taking a shower in 32F with no hot water is not
: a fun experience.

Even I hate having to shower with cold water only. I do that only when camping in the mountains if and only if the hot water tank at the campsite isn't working. Nothing like a nice sweetly long hot shower.

: You guys that kayak and surf in the cold have my total respect.

You really need to be here during late November when the river is full of ice and it's snowing heavily. This has to be one of the most beautiful times to be on the water. Dress warm.
