The photographs were taken on January 28th.

Last week I got 12 hours of exercise, some of it shoveling heavy snow. This week I have got four hours of exercise, mostly walking, some of it in deep unbroken snow. Show shoes would be useful to have, but I have managed without, even though in some places there is almost half a meter of snow.
