Skiing ~ It's Cold Out There
January 23, 2012
Damien and I grew up on the Canadian prairies. We're no wimps when it comes to cold. But our years of living in the northeastern US (one of the coldest corners of that country) spoiled us a bit. Maine is not as cold as Alberta. The longer growing season attests ...
Skiing ~ Up, Down & Through The Woods
January 21, 2012
