Brrrrr....! It is all-caps COLD here - windy, and the temperature is plummeting. We're supposed to get down to -30F or colder with windchill by this evening. Here are a few snapshots, to share the invigorating reality of winter all bundled up and piled waist-deep in snow.

So nice guys!! I miss the snow in Québec area so much! (but not the cold at all ;))... I love your pictures :) and that's cool to see again Marie and Xavier, thanks ;)
Looks pretty darn cold there, Bethann.
Sarah and Ryan and I skied at Teton Pass on Monday, and I estimate the wind-chills at the top of the chairlift probably were about -15 to -20F. Felt so cold that I quit early, which I rarely ever have done.
Then it turned warm, and the past couple of days it’s been in the high +40s.
Stay warm back there!
Miss you guys, too. It is cold, cold, cold. I have errands to do, but I really think I will wait a couple days 'til it warms up.
Mr. Sentz,
Wow! If it is cold enough for you to bow out, it is seriously cold.
It is quite cold here, and I'm not even outside yet. :) Even the kitchen is cold!
