Coldest Messiah performance in years

At concert time yesterday, the temperature at O'Hare had barely made it above -13°C (9°F), and the -21°C (-6°F) wind chill didn't help. At least it was sunny. Even at intermission, about an hour before the sun set, the stained glass at Millar Chapel was amazing:

The audience were facing the massive stained-glass window on the south end of the chapel, which really enhanced the music, I think. We really enjoy performing there.

And as forecast, the temperature bottomed out around midnight and has gotten warmer since then:

The -8°C (18°F) Cassie and I just experienced on her abbreviated walk didn't exactly feel spring-like, but warmer weather will come soon enough.
