I hear the city got 19 inches from the last storm and we only got an inch. The kids were very disappointed not to have a school day. The only difference up north is that the cold temps makes the snow last longer and pile up, but at least it’s pretty.Sarah Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-84044220206870973472011-01-27T18:41:22.422-05:002011-01-27T18:41:22.422-05:00You have carved out quite a beautiful path for you...You have carved out quite a beautiful path for yourself.Paul Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01836602667355512504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-55343230684675519042011-01-27T16:06:21.017-05:002011-01-27T16:06:21.017-05:00Yeah, it has been a rough winter in Maine.

It hasn’t started snowing yet and the forecast is varying from 1 inch (if the storm stays south) to half a foot. We won’t know if it’s a snow day until tomorrow morning. It is at least warmer now (20s F) as it often is on stormy days. <br /><br />I actually screamed on Monday morning when I opened the shades to those icicles and then again when I saw the thermometer. It was actually -14 F (that’s -25 C, Judy and others) right before sunrise and never made it past +4 F (-15 C). I stuck my head out the door, thinking about skiing, and decided it was too cold to even collect the mail from my driveway. I retreated like a ground hog for the day and worked in my warm office. Even my son’s Nordic Ski Team practice was cancelled then, but today I skied and he raced.<br /><br />Troutbirder, thanks for the book recommendation, although I don’t usually read much nonfiction.Sarah Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-84594074381481642472011-01-26T16:16:50.332-05:002011-01-26T16:16:50.332-05:00At least you can get some writing done when the we...At least you can get some writing done when the weather's so frightful.
