In anticipation of spring, a small reminder of how far we have come...

2011 Blizzard

Feb 1 - 2 we got the biggest blizzard since 1999.

Here are some pictures:

Yes, that is snow in our house! (I guess our back porch needs to be insulated better! Ha!)
And, yes, that is a car in our neighbors yard, ugh!

Ice fishing

One of my least favorite seasons is winter. There is nothing fun about freezing cold temperatures, whipping winds and blustering breezes. Brrr. I hibernate, become frozen (no pun intended) and inable to do anything outside for almost 4 months. No dog walking, running...nothing. On a very rare ocassion, I will be forcibly dragged from the comfort of my kitchen and stove outside to sled or shovel or make a snowball.
So this picture is of my mom, who became an adopted cheesehead this year and in the cold, miserable north woods, went ice fishing.
Kudos to you mom. It would have to be about 35 - 40 degrees for me to get out there, but then the ice would probably be weak and I would fall through. Then be much more cold and much more miserable. Which is a good reason to stay inside and warm.
Beautiful fish, I hope he tasted as good as he looks!
