Chilly 27°F Saturday, heading down to 9° tonight. It snowed lightly most of the day. I enjoyed today’s snow from the comfort of the DC-3 cockpit, flying from Cold Bay, AK to Dutch Harbor.

With temperatures below 0°F in Littleton, CO, the birds have been especially active outside our kitchen window. #birds
