Fire on Ice

Fire on ice tonight. The Minneapolis Loppet on Lake of the Isles.

Picked up coffee at Sebastian Joes at end of run. Tomorrow’s a good day for ice cream: 25% discount when it’s < -10F.

False dilemma: “The winters are too cold. Why don’t you move?” Here’s my reply.

Sunny winter’s day, a good day to walk on the squeaky sub-zero snow. Spotted a snow monster and a cyclist on the lake.

Ran around Lake of the Isles. Now, this is my preferred view until Wednesday when the high will next be above zero F.

Today, temperature soared to 18F so walked across Lake of the Isles and Lake Calhoun. Watched people ski-sailing.

First beer of 2014. New Year’s Day tradition: walk + lunch. Frigid weather = short walk.

-2 Fahrenheit, and dropping. A good day to stay inside, and do a bunch of work for a client.

Today (hopefully) saved the roof: figured out a heat tape problem. Melt water is now flowing where I want it to flow.

Our yard this morning, still snowing: definitely a white Christmas. We went for a run on the fresh snow.
