Being tugged along in the sledge by 1Dp (Daddy Power) whilst daddy runs up and down the street in the snow as training is fun (top speed achieved using 2Pp, Parent Power).

I would also like to apologise for the snowman, Emi insisted if he was a boy he had to have a winky.... it was cold. Poor chap, caught on camera at less than his best Grin

Father--in-law has put his bike in the garage under a blanket and visits it regularly to make certain it is okay. Told him cruisers weren't as good as crossers Grin

You got snow?! I am jealous! Michigan is curiously with out snow for most of the winter thus far. Very odd for us!

That will be great memories for the kids. By the time they get up near 40 yrs of age that snow in the photo will be 40 inches deeper! Wink

Flying with twins is a lot of fun..

Well if the news is to be believed, the whole world is under snow except the North German Plain Angry

Mind you it is colder than a frogs knob, -15°c.

Good evening all... Wink

Wonderful shots of the children Mark...nothing wrong with that snowman either...

We were at the bugsmasher field today but there is no snow within several hours for us to do any wheel/sk flights in the C185.
Had to settle for wheel only touch and goes... Grin

Been a very poor winter here with just the odd snow fall, then it rains and takes it all away.
Today it was +6C at the bugsmasher field.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Hey if you could send all your snow over here I would be happy! Bein' a Michigander I like da snow! Winter time is for snow, not rain, green grass, and no ice. In all seriousness, this lack of snow is going to be a huge problem for farmers here come fall. That and there might be an early blossom which would REALLY screw up our plant life here. So in all seriousness, it is a big problem.
