It's sunny today and COLD (single digits) here in Lawrence today. My neighbor from across the street is running along the frozen sidewalk, towing his kids on a sled, and releasing them to go zooming past him. This is so Minnesota!

Winter is the best *g*

I would sled here but there is too much brush on the ground. I guess there is always the streets.

Thanks so much, Chris, for offering a welcoming place for Those of Us Who Like Winter. Up here in Nebraska, we are treated like outcasts. (Right, blzblack?) They...just...don't...UNDERSTAND!

It sounds lovely. Also identical to Rice Lake. :)

I love certain things about winter - deep, fresh snow on the landscape; snowy forested hills under the moon; the smell of the air. It would be easier to enjoy the snow if I lived somewhere that knew how to act, perhaps New England or the northern Midwest. But here? With all our hills and transplants from other places (California, Latin America, Asia), the region just stumbles to its knees. And it doesn't take much snow to put us there. I don't like walking on slippery surfaces (especially hills), so that takes away some of the enjoyment, but this REI walking stick with the tip that converts to an icepick is the best $60 I ever spent.

Hssssssssss. Winter is EVIL! We've had single digit weather all week. With snow. On the ground! Still! Gah. I don't like it. Three snowfalls in lotusland and possibly a fourth on its way. WAAAAH!
