There's nothing like
cold fingers, toes and nose to let you know you're still alive!
Fortunately, it's not the cold hand of death, but a good ole Minnesota winter. If you can feel
the icy burn on your skin, the frozen stiffness in your hands and the cold slap
in your face, then you've arrived alive and sublime here in Minnesota!
If you hang around
long enough and make it through January then you've made it over the first hump
of winter.

But, hold on!
February, the second hump of winter, still needs to be conquered! Once we've
climbed the last winter hump, we can see spring on the horizon. It's at the
summit of February that we shout "we
can do this!"
January and February
can kiss my chilled chafed ass cheeks. We're about to march into
March.
Typically, March is
our snowiest month in Minnesota, but warmer temps drift in and fingers and toes
are beginning to thaw.
