Not me, I'm enjoying all the snow.
Did I mention I've been allowed to drive the trail groomer? Drove about half an
hour (so about 4 miles) on Friday night and about double that on Saturday.
Saturday he had me working the drag a little bit, Friday was just learning to
steer and run the speed. Its interesting driving a 10' 6" (I'd previously said
it was 8' but I was wrong) machine through the woods. Some of the gates are
only 11' wide...

winter
I do not recall the technical details but an article in the paper here
on the weekend suggests that the issue is one of the sun going through a
cooler cycle.
It suggests that the winter that you folks have been suffering through
may become a normal thing for the next 30 years or so as the cycle
works its way through.
You had best pray for some global warming.
