Has your California kid on the east coast bought a coat yet?

<p>In cold climates, the daily weather report tells you such lovely details as the wind chill factor and how long it takes exposed skin to freeze. Brrr! I’ve noticed that alot of kids around here wear scarves that can be wrapped to protect the face and ears.</p>

<p>I recommend the glove liner in the glove liner in the pocket thing, too. They are great to have in a pinch!</p>

<p>Bought the silk/spandex glove liners today at local sporting goods store and am mailing them tomorrow. Hope they do the trick. Thanks for the advice.</p>

<p>My d bought a down jacket last yr to wear in Rochester. She already realized that her waist length jacket might look nice, but it doesn’t do much in the cold and wind. So, this weekend she bought a Nike down coat that comes almost to her knee. This should get her across campus without freezing. I’ve also been busy knitting scarves.</p>

<p>Some store names or catalog names, please, for those silk spandex glove liners? :-)</p>

<p>See post #53 for a link.</p>

<p>S says the silk glove liners work great.</p>

<p>Link #53 works great too!</p>

<p>Kinshasa, thanks for that–I’m glad to hear they’re working for your son!</p>
