The high temp here for the month of December has been 24F with a couple of low temps below zero. There are footprints in the snow leading out to a hole in the ice on our lake; we have been wondering whether it is a hole for ice fishing or the farthest they got before they dropped through. I'm taking my favorite 7-year-old ice skating tomorrow but it will be in the free covered skating rink the city fathers built a few years back to keep kids off the lake ice. Oh.... and I'm converting my furnace to coal. The sooner global warming gets here the happier I'll be. You guys on the coast can just take your chances.
