Soooo Cold!

General
Well, it's cold to me at least. I like the heat, love some warmth and I generally sleep comfortably with the heat around the 70f or so 21c ish, so I like it warm.
Outside it's been in the 20f range -16 range. It's really been limiting of what I do outside. It's been absolutely beautiful, no rain/snow/sleet/hail nothing to hinder my muck-about-ability, but then there's the chill! Last season's 'dry' lake quicksand play I wore some luscious thermal tights, and thick warm sweaters (the Velma style outfit) or on warmer days the Mudscouts/Swampfox outfits which had the same thermal tights and a warm sweatshirt under the skirt/shirt combo so I'd be warmer.

Even the playing in the clay yellow swimsuit outfit had thermal tights and a sweatshirt. (this yellow swimsuit combo was actually what I was wearing for underwear under the mud scouts outfit) In fact, you can still see my socks with Mudscout tassels on while I go romping in the claypot

While the mud and quicksand is exposed right now, so is the chill. There's a winter storm warning for the area up there, and its still cold and chilly!!!

I guess you could wear either a wet suit or a dry suit, (diving suits) to ofset the chill in the mud but I don't know if that would take away the enjoyment for you
I actually own a wetsuit, (well partial) its more a summer suit of shorts/tshirt style, not long or full (heckn' expensive) for the full suits and its a wetsuit vs a dry suit. While it does have an insulation sort of quality, ya still get wet which in that chill is bad. I have had Hypothermia once before in my youth, and I can tell you it's not fun! Hopping that once this winter storm series passes that something can be done out there again.
Also, its a two n' a half hour or so drive to get out there
