I am not a winter person. Like, at all. I grew up in South Florida, where 75-degree temps were the norm in January. But after moving to Birmingham, Alabama (where I live now), I ve slowly acclimated to 30-degree days and darkness by 5 p.m. Though I realize it s just part of the seasons changing, winter s short days still make me feel sad and tired.
This year has been particularly rough because we re all spending way more time at home and not socializing nearly as much. This lack of time with other humans, paired with dreary winter weather, makes for a pretty depressing combo. While I like to think of myself as a generally happy, glass-half-full type of person, even I ve started to feel lonely and lethargic. So I decided to try some things to make myself a little happier and more energetic this winter.

For the third consecutive year, the Midwest Open Ice Fishing Tournament has been canceled. In 2019 and 2020 the tournament was canceled because the ice wasn t thick enough. This year, the tournament has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. More than 150 two-man teams were expected to participate this year.
This is one of the largest ice fishing tournaments in the country. Participants come from multiple different states in the U.S. and provinces in Canada. Tom Knutson, the event s organizer, said it was difficult getting a permit for the event with the state s current restrictions.
