Here in north central PA it seems like relentless fog, gloom, wet, cold - but not JANUARY cold, rheumatic, vile, evil dark unremitting slough of despond sort of thing. I am finding it increasingly depressing. BUT, that being said, a nice pipe lights a little warm glow in the middle of all that... for as long as it lasts. Luckily I have a few mile-deep HUngarians that are up to the task! 3 hour bowls!!
