I have really enjoyed this thread. I tend to avoid reading this type of question & answer because, well, people like what they like. But this is a fun read.

If I'm lucky enough to sleep in, then I take advantage of it. But it rarely happens. If it does happen and my hiking buddy has started a fire...I don't complain

I generally like to get going quickly and stop for breakfast at a nice spot with a view, or a rock, or a log to sit on, ... whatever. Hiking warms me better than anything else on a cold morning (except a fire!).
