I'm with you. Not pining.. More tongue in cheek. That said, MKX taking lead and coordinating could make it a bit easier. Vis down to about a mile now in central Boone County. Roads dusted. Small flakes.
Check out the recently re-opened High Bridge in Eau Claire. Built in 1880 and served as an active railroad bridge until 1992. Converted to a pedestrian bridge in 2015 and then main supports rebuilt in the last year or so. https://volumeone.org/articles/2022/03/16/293021-hit-the-trail-again-ecs-high-bridge-reopens
