Brandy Sydow of Clarksville, Tenn., coaches her mother, Vicki Sydow of Stratton, on an elliptical walker exerciser, one of the best-sellers for Christmas 2008 at the Sears store in McCook. Brandy, who returned in November from her second tour in Iraq, said she was looking for inside exercise equipment because it's too cold to run outside in Nebraska. Brandy said she almost prefers Iraq's heat to Nebraska's single-digit frigid temperatures. "I hate the cold ... I despise the cold," Brandy said "Iraq's a little extreme ... Tennessee's nice."
