Clear, cold, and windy

February 25.

Clear, cold, and windy. Thermometer at 7° at 7.30 A.M. Air filled with dust blowing over the fields. Feel the cold about as much as when it was below zero a month ago.

Pretty good skating.

H. D. Thoreau, Journal, February 25, 1855

Pretty good skating. See February 3, 1855 ("This will deserve to be called the winter of skating.”)

The week ahead in Henry’s journal
A journal, a book that shall contain a record of all your joy.
"A stone fruit. Each one yields me a thought." ~ H. D. Thoreau, March 28, 1859


I sit on this rock
wrestling with the melody
that possesses me.
