[Mark Trail, December 29, 1996.]
Mark Trail is helping the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration with tips on preventing and treating frostbite.
I don’t know who’s camping with Mark. Rusty (who became Mark’s adopted son) entered the strip in 1999. Whoever the unidentified companion is, I like his guarded enthusiasm: “sort of fun.” Shoveling snow is sort of fun too. It’s kind of fun, sort of, in a way.
Okay, it’s not really fun. It is not fun at all.
Good fortune to all who must shovel, including me.

Why isn't Mark dressed in plaid? Doesn't he know plaid is warmer? And hasn't he read his Proust?
Ha! What I esp. like is the color coordination: aqua pants, magenta hat and jacket. Hard to find those colors in a plaid.
