    Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

    We just finished shoveling/snowblowing the homestead after the second storm of the week. The first one dumped 18" (snow day) on us and the recent one hit us with another 3-4". I decided to take our Siberian (Indy) out for a walk afterwards. Temp is about 20F and I'm WPG-ing for the walk. I put on "The Beast" for shoveling and the walk, Brit. Indian Army dark khaki wool hose, and a great wool turtleneck sweater. My wife said the hat looked "funky" with the kilt but why be a slave to fashion when comfort and functionallity are important. Later!

    Glad you got it this time, the last one down my way was a real doozy. About 3.5 feet overall and right before finals. Enjoy it while you can.

    See--people sometimes look with horror at the description of a typical Michigan winter. Seems like folks from Colorado have learned of "Zen and the Art of snow shoveling". Its all in how you adapt to it. Indy seems to have the right idea, as do you!
