The Codger Who Came in from the Cold

Nigel Pettibone had wandered far. He had lost his way without realizing it. The cold, howling winds and the freezing temperature made him long for his comfortable home within the gated Arminian Oaks community in Calabasas. This photo was taken just before Nigel's rescue. He was treated for hyperthermia, given a nice warm meal and then he slept solidly for the next twelve hours.

  1. Only Nigel could get worked up enough to be hyperthermic in the arctic or antarctic.

  2. Yeah, the medics on board the ship got hyperthermia mixed up with hypothermia. It can happen.

  3. Way to go, Nigel! Where, next? the Sahara desert?
