It finally snowed in February!  I realize that sounds funny but it's been a very warm February by Nebraska standards.  The fresh 3 inches of snow provided the perfect opportunity to get outside and play in the snow, except this time Jeff did it in nothing but a swimsuit to do some self experimentation he and Zack have been working on for the last couple of weeks.

Welcome back for season 3 of the Ax & Yoke.  We're starting this season with a little project to help Steve become more uncompromising with the standards he's set for himself.  Like many of us, Steve knows what he wants to do in order to operate at his highest level, but for some reason or another just doesn't do the work.  Zack and Jeff are going to help Steve get it done once and for all.

To man the rudder is to keep the balance of the vessel in check.  Going too far in any direction leads to trouble.  When developing our character we must balance what's in our nature with the version of ourselves we chose to show the world.
