We are being FORCED to stay home. We put our truck in the shop on the 26th of Dec and they did not even start looking at it till the 3rd of Jan. Gotta love it! :mad: Getting VERY tired of this garbage.

Sux to be you...

I wish we were going out as planed, BUT, with the extreme weather coming it may turn out to be to our advantage. At least I have wood for the stove.

The weather this year reminds me of when I was a kid. Back then we often were playing pond hockey in Nov.

Sure hope this is a sign of things to come. I miss heavy snow (by today's standards) and early ice. Duck season back then was short, but intense. The "herds" came through in a very short amount of time. Made for some unreal hunting.

Deer season was better then too, more snow. Makes it easier to see them.

8 degrees in Alpena, not sure about the wind chill, other than there certainly is one. It's gonna be a couple more days 'til my truck's ready and that's O.K. I'm doing a good job of making sure this couch stays on the floor and the fire keeps going.

Strange weather! I'm in Northern California and their expecting record setting high temperatures for this time of year. The Pass between Reno and Sacramento had NO snow! Unusual for this time of the year. Hopefully I'll get a load back to the Midwest and the cold will be gone by the time I get there.

Just got the van washed and cleaned all the windows on the inside. Soon, off to Home Depot to kill some time.
