1/7/10 – You know it’s January when you walk out the door in the morning into zero degree temperatures and it feels warm! The cold snap that followed our Christmas snow continues, but has moderated enough that I am looking at the short sleeved side of the closet again. We still only have a foot of snow on the ground, but it is (just) enough for good skiing and snowshoeing.
Cindy saw three wolves yesterday along Highway 61 near Grand Marais and all three had signs of mange. We can’t imagine how wolves survive in extreme cold normally, much less without all their fur. – Bill
