Dear Journal,
There isn't that much that I can write about today for I am to cold to write! It is absolutely freezing outside and I don't like it one bit! On the bright side, today happened to be Sarah's birthday!
This morning the snow was nearly 5 feet deep and 18 inch icicles were hanging from the fort's eaves. Werner and Howard haven't returned with the salt yet, and Lewis mentioned that they are not the best woodsmen, but the area's perpetual cloud cover and thick forest make finding the way difficult even for good woodsmen.
You see what I mean when I say it was super duper cold today! I hope that it will get better by tomorrow! I have to go and try to keep myself warm. Sarah I hope that you enjoyed your birthday regardless of the freezing weather [:
