The latest from the NWS/NOAA. Maybe I will be able to go ice fishing later this winter. Been a long time since I went ice fishing. We never had cushy digs like in this picture.
Of course, I just sold my car and am on the hunt for a Jeep or Dodge 4x4. I will have to venture to gag, Bend to look at some decent rigs. At least I will be sure they start in cold weather and all works as it should. Should have a bit of snow thrown in the mix just for fun.
How is the weather where you live? I seriously like this type of weather. Someone has to and I will not mention the nasty comments that have been tossed my way. Babies.

Have gone from 55 yesterday to 28 today. No snow, though we had rain for 4 days. It will be bitter the next week.
