Mittens! Duh! I knew that! Got a little too techical for my own good. All the things I "knew" about being outside in the cold weather from long ago, before I owned a car, are coming back to me. For example, my feet do better in the cold when I wear knee-high nylons under the thin wool socks. I am going to try the lobster glove/mittens for riding though. Thanks, all! L.
