The fog came in and it started to snow lightly on Saturday night before the Amery Candle Light Ski, which made the 2 mile trail through the woods especially cozy and a little spooky.

We're putting this up at Sally Loo's tomorrow. Ilsa, I'm mailing you a barn to make!

more pictures from our time at Itasca - including a visit to the famous headwaters of the Mississippi.

Go take a peek at the paper project for issue 3, it's so great ;)

The lantern-lit trail at Itasca State Park was beautiful and cold (negative 10 cold!) I think that's the coldest ski I've been on ever. I hope to go on at least 2 more candle light events before the snow melts.

A BIG ONE.

There's a great article this week about the event in New Times:

we met some hungry birds on our snow shoe hike through tahoe meadows on mount rose.
