-15 degrees F

This morning it was -15.  It did not feel that cold, except for when the snot froze inside of my nose.

Sunrise was 9:15 am.

I skied for an hour around sunset at 6:29 pm. 

We are loosing 8 minutes a day of sunlight.

I am keeping my spirits bright by skiing every minute I can, eating lots of chocolate and making plans to visit sunnier places.

I have also made plans to spend the weekend in Fairbanks, go to the hot springs and to a contra dance as well as go shopping!!!
