So far, February has been much colder than January; it seems like we’ve been a month behind in weather all winter. That may have been beneficial on the front end of the season, but it will not bode well come spring.
It’s almost 30 below again this morning. Cars make a crunching noise on the snow, there are popping sounds from the buildings as they contract, and the great, unblinking eye of an ice halo glares at us puny men.

by the great eye’s icy stare–
that, and bitter cold

Thank you! It’s northern Minnesota, where it gets colder than some parts of Alaska. We had 60 below once many years ago.

I surely do, Lane, but of shorter duration! I must admit, my Norwegian roots don’t even help when it’s this cold. Stay warm!
