Sweet! My eyes start to crave green right about now.

We've grown lazy and complacent after ten years of mild winters in
Iowa. In the past there have been some New Years Day flights where we
were able to land on grass strips -- but surely not this year. Not
without a ski-plane. It's been brutal.

Amazingly, the weatherman is predicting a major warming trend for the
weekend, with RAIN predicted for next Monday. Liquid water? I'll
believe it when I see it -- the OAT right now is -1 degrees
fahrenheit.
