56 degrees, cloudy and the rain has stopped. Got another inch last night!! So I think we're up to 5 inches total in this storm. :applaud::eleph:

My favorite time of the year where a fire in the wood stove feels good in the morning with a hot cup of coffee watching the sun rise.
Can you imagine a kid doing that in1he 1950's and the parents encouraging it??
well, maybe a black kid, different culture, different expectations.
probably just copying what he sees around him.
BTW- Its 58 here at 8am.

I like winter too. I have never been one to dread it. The first snow is always comforting thing for me.

Yeah, the first snow is all right. But it's the 15th, or the 30th, or the 50th that wears on me.

Plus all that dark. Dark by six, dark until eight the next morning.

I spent 20 years in the Alaska interior. The sun was just visible over the horizon for just under 4 hours on the shortest day. Lived by head lamp a lot. You find ways to live with it and enjoy it because you sure ain’t gonna beat it. You gotta get out in it no matter the temps. I never had seasonal affective disorder or as some call it cabin fever. My wife made sure of that. She burned up the wood fast enough we cut in the winter too a lot. We have loaded up many times and go cut wood at -40 just to get out. We didn’t think nothing of it. You just do it.
