Out west window, dusting of snow from prior days and pond frozen over. On north side, cows grazing in -12C/+11F frigid temperatures, we're inside with the furnace stoked with firewood cut on the property last year. One of two Internet service providers functional, maybe the technicians don't want to scale the tower until it warms up. (Salina, Iowa) 20161215 - Taqueria El Zarape
Rico tacos (carnitas, chorizo, asada), cecina rice+beans dinner clearly made to order, for neighbourhood Mexican lunch amongst many local postings on Sunday afternoon.

Adult basic martial arts class of one hour is long when it's one-to-one with senior instructor. Dojo remains true to posted hours during holiday season, even with regular class leaders away.

Afternoon traffic jam amongst skaters on the rink, while roads are empty and most businesses closed for New Year's Day.
