We have a ton of snow on the ground still. There is more predicted over the weekend. I'd say we'll have enough for at least another two, maybe three weeks, on the sled. We'll have snow on the ground until the end of May. I usually can't get my kayak out until the end of May/early June. That's when the ice is off the lakes.

It's getting close to 0C/32F during the day right now. Usually about -2C. Have to run the dogs early in the morning or late in the evening or take lots of breaks. That's a bit too warm for them. It's light til almost 9pm now so lots of daylight to run in. Overnight lows are still about -20C/-4F.

I don't always walk for the mail. When I'm working, I drive by the boxes on my way home so I just stop a couple times a week. I walk more often in the summer. It's a nice tour with one of the dogs who can't be loose. Bandit loves going for the mail. It was good socialization for Tehya today. Lots of activity on the weekends that she wouldn't see normally.
