This is the third day of 2009... -42C (stands for COLD) ! I'm starting to feel the effects of cabin fever. It's been around -40 for a few days and I am growing impatient as I wait for good skiing weather...anything warmer than -30. 

My daughter dug out an old sweat shirt with the words Chosen Frozen on the front and wanted to know where I got it from. I told her of a time I was storm bound in Iqaluit's Navigator Inn with folks who were doing an expedition to the North Pole(Will Steiger)... their expedition was named Chosen Frozen. I bought the shirt...still fits and I guess so does the message.
