So cold!

"When the temperature drops far below freezing, many people plan to stay warm and cozy inside. But when it's 'so cold' that everyday things behave in unusual ways, it is worth the effort to get outside and play!" -- Amazon.

Ice forms on Dad's beard. He looks like a messy eater with food on his face. "Wait a minute." He goes inside, and I look around. It's so quiet with nobody driving by. I pull my scarf to cover my mouth to warm the air. Down the street, someone tries to start a truck, but the engine whines and won't go. Dad comes back with a cup of hot water in one hand and a pan in the other. "Watch this." He throws the water up, and it turns into mist that hangs in the air. "Like magic," I say as it disappears.
