a bored and lonely teenager looking to find "something" on the net perhaps...will watch with interest....
wiersy111 dont feel too bad bud some of us are just having a dry patch deer wise ...not a full blown drought yet but getting close. the dog starting to look sideways at me and although she hasnt said anything yet SWMBO must be starting to wonder what is actually going on when we say we off hunting as no venison coming home to fill freezer

No worries Elvis I have no doubt i will kill something!!!! There's alway that dumb fuzzy faced fawn that won't go away. Our muzzle loader season can get cold and very snowy so I don't get too picky.

We have had a bit of a cold snap here too. down to single digits a couple of times but mostly the low teens to 20F. We also got some much needed snow with 9 inches here at the homestead and a couple of feet in the foothills. Next week it's supposed to get into the 40's and maybe rain a little. That will get rid of the compact snow and ice on the roads that the snow removal folks can't scrape off. Then it will get cold again for a month or two.
Just remember, spring is coming! (for us in the top of the world)

How did you fare in the storm Pete? We got hit with the fringe of it...just really heavy rain and a little wind.
How about you Tiks? Any problems mate?

My shed (12m x7.5m ) was ankle deep in water through to the back wall, apart from that all good. Lots of trees down in area.
Got a bit worried about the golf ball and bigger hail.
