#EmotionalHeadlock did not appear to work well on the 200+ fart sackers who stayed in their cozy warm bed this morning, but 4 extraordinary men braved the 43 degree weather to welcome Jack Frost on a beautiful Thursday morning. Our gain, your loss.

With 43 degree weather, QIC decided to do all things ’43’.
