Title: Winter Get a Way
Post by: FinsnFur on February 14, 2008, 08:00:25 PM
I've about had my fill of all this snow. I can't even remember ever getting this much snow in one winter. When the snow slows down it slows down to every other day.  :iroll:

Picking my girls up for the weekend in Madison, tomorrow and instead of coming home were gonna camp out at one of their big hotels with the indoor waterpark.

Should be some time well spent with the girls considering the weather.
I'll have the laptop in case I need it....and may check later when they throw us out of the waterpark. Otherwise I'll be back late Sunday night.

Dont tear the place down :wink:

Good deal Jimbo, my wife has me grounded this weekend too. So I will be spending the weekend with the fam instead of hunting this weekend. Time well spent. I would like to take my boy hunting this weekend though, we will just have to see.

Yeah but I'm actually about even with the bottom tip of the setting duck #1 arrow, only over about under the first L in Sioux Falls. So,,, it may just miss us to the south and east. :biggrin:

You better put some 44" gumbo mudders on that ark to get it out the driveway to the lowland Bill!!  :roflmao: :roflmao:

^^  :laf: :laf: isn't it funny how that works Bill, what one guy's been havin in his neck of the woods, they would gladly trade some with the other guy.  :laf:

Well Jim what ya waikin up to? You're lookin uglier then I am, weather I'm talkin, it's not missin us entirely, but you look a whole lot worse then me. I'm still right on the edge of it, and it depends on how the sucker tracks out. As far as counties go, going from the very northwest county, I'm 5 down and 3 over. Are you in the county that borders Illinois then?

44" mudders  :doh2: :laf: :laf:

I woke up to freezing rain at 8:00
Within an hour it started snowing pretty good, visibility around 100 yards. Now it's snowing just the same but the winds have picked up tremendously.

I have a HUGE pine tree in the front yard. The trunk is roughly 33 inches in diameter, just to give you an idea of how tall it is. Several of the limbs are setting less then two feet from the ground, where they are normally 6 to 8 feet off the ground. I'm expecting a power outage before the days over with all that ice and snow hanging on stuff.

I keep contemplating slipping out and taking some pics.....but mannnn... :holdon:  it's cozy in here in my sweats. :eyebrownod:

Just nw of Milwaukee and it's still raining here. SHould make the driveway good for ice skating not to mention the road. :madd:
You won't need an ark, the rainbow is a sign of God's promise that he won't flood the earth again.  :highclap: But he never said he wouldn't bury us in snow.  :laf:  Could be a way to not have the idiots we have running for pres not make it to the elections.   :highclap:

Yeah that ice is the worst. It looked a little ugly here for a bit, but I think it's done now and we didn't end up with much at all. It was real wet snow, wind's still blowin perty good, now it's like 32 out. Not sure if I'm gonna do a little callin later, I'm a little comfy on the couch and the ambition level isn't risin much. Bout time for a nap.  :biggrin:
