Hiking. With_Lots_of_Layers. Over_Many_Hills. It warms me up in no time.

Dr. Eric Last, Wantagh, New York

This is the cold time of winter I embrace. Although the temps are still low, the days are noticeably longer. Brighter. Teasing, promising the warmth to come. Reminding us that day follows night, cold yields to warmth.

Via the warmth of a fluffy hat, coat, and gloves. And the fact that the cold is only temporary.

Dr. Aline Charabaty, Johns Hopkins Medicine

I love watching the snow fall with a cup of tea and good book. But I’m thinking about all who are in Texas without heat and water, and wondering how can this happen in this country?!

Dr. Elizabeth Gundersen, Florida Atlantic University

I moved to south Florida so I guess I didn’t embrace it fully! But when I lived in the northeast I took up ice climbing and skiing. Sort of a “if you can’t beat the cold, join it” strategy.
