Is Lake Whatcom in Covington?

I'm not sure, I know Bellingham is in Minnesota AND Massachusetts though, so it's possible. Not finding any Lake Whatcoms on the Thurston or Pierce County maps though. Weird.

Hard to believe it's already January 32nd. Time flies.

I guess there's only one in Whatcom county. Which means its pretty far from Jim's place and probably had a colder monthly average.

I think it's been 24 years since Bend had a January with 31 days of snowcover greater than 6"
