Once we go live on February 4th, I will start posting more detailed maps to show our daily progress.

It's super cold here today, about 20 degrees Fahrenheit, and everything's blanketed in snow. At first they predicted that we'd get about an inch (2.5cm for you Dutchies), then they said 4-6 inches. It looks to be about 3 inches now and it's still coming down hard. Who knows how much we'll end up with? I'd better get my sled out of storage ;-)

Brrr, I can't believe I'll be able to go outside without my winter coat soon! Only 5 more days!
