Snowstorm

I was just thinking--it's ridiculous how many forces (nature and human) are against me on this one. In complete honesty, the -60F and 135 miles are not nearly as scary as gaining the approval of others. That's why I've decided that people's approval is not a race requirement, just highly highly highly recommended. We're not in Death Valley anymore. Tomorrow, the snow passing through Minnesota will drench that area in -21F temperatures, something I am trying my best to comprehend, and it makes me shiver--In a good way.
