The weatherman kinda missed the forecast here in eastern Oklahoma. We were only supposed to get rain and ended up with 6 inches of snow today. And yes slackbunny 6 inches is considered a blizzard here. :)

My luck a freak snowstorm will blow up on me in mid_Iowa and strand me even before I get to Iowabow's place and I will miss out on getting to Tennessee for the Classic once again!

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I like the cold and snow for a few reasons. It drops the humidity out of the air and makes building a good bow easy. And I like to chase bunnys around. I think we are only looking at 1-4" of snow up here, not much at all. Only another 6 weeks and we will start warming up.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

JW....No problems about you getting stranded just wait a few extra days and things will change.
Wolfwatcher....Are you talking to me or someone else named Eddie on here?
Well I've got the chains on the tractor and love a challenge and winter like PD.I'll have to admit though snow and a lot of it is not as appealing to me as when I was a kid.It is nice just after say a couple of inches of fresh snow and at night how dead quiet it can get in the woods.We're expecting 9 to 12 inches I guess.Hard to say the wind will make the difference,& the weatherman a lot of times is a bit off on his predictions.

Oh yea last but not least.The tracks left in the snow tell you exactly how busy animals are around you.I always look for bobcat tracks myself.You southern boys will never get to know that experience very well but it is nice to be warm that's for sure.
