It gets cold here. Really cold. About once a year I have to remind myself that I choose to live here.
With the snow, ice, bitter temperatures, salt, sand (yes, my neighbor sands our sidewalks - the floors in my condo look lovely), shovels, mittens, boots, etc., come some really fun, winter based events. My husband, Dan Dwight, took the pictures above this past weekend during the City of Lakes Loppet, a cross country ski festival that runs through the trails and lakes of the Twin Cities. It's a fun event that gets us city dwellers out of our warm beds to cheer on local athletes, drink beer, walk on icy lakes, and enjoy the season that, according to a certain groundhog I know, will be around for a little while longer.
