icepixieOh for the love of god, we're going to get three to five more inches of snow tonight. I am TIRED of this, do you hear me, weather gods?
On the other hand, since the assembly is in recess right now, I don't have to work, and thus don't have to go out in it. I suppose if we have to get snowed on, better now than later. Hear that, weather gods?
Speaking of snow and ice, I found this collection of photos of backyard ice rinks in the Boston area. I...did not know it was possible to build one's own ice rink! I mean, intellectually I know that ponds freeze over up there, and people skate outdoors, but it never occurred to me that you could, like, flood a basketball court, or a flat place in your yard, and have it stay that way long enough to make the work viable.
wintercreek, I got your postcard from Hawaii! Hee, I love the idea of Maggie and Joel vacationing there, and Fleischman wanting to indebt himself to Hawaii until she reminds him of tsunamis. Thank you!
