Thanks for the photos,
I lived and worked in upper Wisconsin for 6 years, 25 miles South of Superior Wi. In the winter it was VERY cold and there was LOTS of SNOW.

You will have lots of time to work on your project, there is little else to do there in the winter, except snow mobile, ice fish, ski,drink,build snow men, drink,hunt, etc,etc, etc.

I really love the peace and quiet there.
