<i>In the bleak midwinter,<br>
frosty wind made moan,<br>
Earth stood hard as iron,<br>
water like a stone;<br>
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,<br>
snow on snow,<br>
In the bleak midwinter, long ago.</i><br><br>
Well, not so long ago. Try today. Snow on snow on snow. We don't get the big storms, we get 5 days straight of a couple of inches. Christmas snow. And they don't plow here, they wait for the Chinook. It makes for slogging.<br><br>
A bit more than 6 miles today in a pokey one hour. Slower than recovery pace with hills. The bleak midwinter indeed.<br><br><br><br>
Hope the lucky socks work for you Meri!
