Nothing To Whine About

For more than three weeks we have been getting blasted with an unusual amount of snow and drifting as well as temperatures approaching -30 degrees.
After seeing these pictures, I have determined we really can't complain too much about the weather.






As a Minnesotan, we have earned the right to complain about the weather. We just have to be careful about how much we complain.

A "Two Dog" Night

In my last blog I talked about the bitter cold we were experiencing.

Our beloved girls, Lucy and Betty had to bundle up before venturing out into the bitter blast.

At 6pm it was already -18 degrees on it's way down to -25 with windchills of -50.

The girls made it back inside safely after their brief trip outside.

As we say here in Minnesota...It's a bit chilly out there.

> It's winter in Minnesota
> And the gentle breezes blow
> Seventy miles an hour
> At thirty-five below.

> Oh, how I love Minnesota
> When the snow's up to your butt
> You take a breath of winter
> And your nose gets frozen shut.

> Yes, the weather here is wonderful
> So I guess I'll hang around
> I could never leave Minnesota
> I'm frozen to the ground!
