2018 Winter Wonderland! Really?!

 Tim in October:"Are you ready to leave yet? It will be cold soon and it is not fun dealing with it: keeping the house warm, shoveling snow day after day and icy roads is not what I want to spend winter dealing with."
MC: I can understand that but: change of seasons, waking up to sun shining on immaculate snow, skiing... I like to live this every year."

This year winter has been especially tough. Temperatures of 0 F. or less were the norm of the day. Snow storms were followed by pouring rain, freezing rain, and windy days. So, after these storms we(/ no/ ), Tim had to  snow blow for many hours and I helped  moving piles of snow, we both agreed: it is time to hit the road.

However, look at  the pictures above. They represent the best part of winter in New England... that is as long as you can warm up next to a nice fire from the pellet stove.
