Colder Weather and Longer Days

Missouri's finally stopped fooling around. Coming out of the warmest January in some 100 years, it plunged us back(?) into winter for February. The heater in my house is having a hard time adjusting, so it's even a bit cold in here... not that I mind for the most part. Now all we need is some snow and we can at least say they tried...

On the other hand, the days are growing longer. I can catch a bit of a sunrise in the mornings before I go off to school now. It's really pretty from my house, because the little valley below; all the trees and houses; all get bathed in a pinkish-red light. ^^ So it's subtle, but better than darkness, or, alternatively, fog...
