“In Winter’s Grip III:” The Aftermath

Written February 9th, 2014 by Hasso Hering

Trouble is, when you’re more or less stuck in the house, and the Olympics on TV feature an endless race on skis, what else is there to do besides commenting on the weather and its aftermath? Those Olympic skiers, God bless them, do have tremendous endurance. I give them that. Way more than it takes to shovel half a ton of wet snow and slush, I’m sure. (hh)
