A young couple purchased an old home in Northern New York State from two elderly sisters. Winter was fast approaching and the wife was concerned about the house's lack of insulation.
"If they could live here all those years, so can we!" the husband confidently declared. One November night the temperature plunged to below zero, and they woke up to find interior walls covered with frost.
The husband called the sisters to ask how they had kept the house warm. After a rather brief conversation, he hung up.
"SO? What did they do?" the wife asked.
"For the past 30 years," he muttered, "they've gone to Florida for the winter."
