Frigid January in Wisconsin

After diverting at the last possible moment from Grand Geneva's ice-covered runway, we ended up landing at Lake Lawn Lodge instead (C02).  Normally not plowing the runway would be a bad thing -- but in this case, it allowed for more traction than the glare-ice covered plowed runway did in Lake Geneva.

The wind was right down the runway, too -- which helped immensely.

When these pictures were taken on 1/18/04, the temperature was just above zero, and the winds were howling at 15, gusts to 20, for a wind-chill factor of -25 degrees.    Check out that cobalt-blue sky!

The Mighty Miss froze literally overnight...

The temperature when this was taken was just above zero...

Even plugged in, the oil temperature only "warmed" to 37 degrees!

Runway? What runway?
