LETTER FROM THE EDITOR<br />

Do you think the lake surfers in this issue care how long our winters<br />

are? Does the father of the two young surfers in the story worry<br />

his boys might catch a cold running around outside in wetsuits?<br />

When these guys are paddling out, faces numb, an expanse of frozen lake<br />

before them, do you think they are wondering if there are any new movies<br />

out on Netflix?<br />

I think these guys are rock stars! A true inspiration. They don’t waste<br />

energy complaining about the cold. They don’t let the weather dictate their<br />

happiness. They get out there and do it. They embrace what is. They choose<br />

to be happy!<br />

We can too. Especially when we remember how lucky we are to even<br />

be alive. To be healthy! To FEEL the stinging cold. To have a warm, safe<br />

place to sleep and food to eat.<br />

We’ve got a lot to be thankful for. Let’s remember that. Every single day.<br />

Rain or shine.<br />
