Well it has to be warming up it got warm enough for the neighbor hood Bear to take a walk. We didnt see it but left some huge tracks in the snow this morning. Really big tracks for a Black Bear
Also, if this winter is too much for you, perhaps you should consider living in a condo? Or moving someplace south where it is warmer. When I was a kid, most winters were like this one. Not like the previous 20 years or so, with mild weather and little snow if any in late fall and winter months. When I was a wee tyke, it snowed a lot more here (almost every winter) and winters were far worse. And if you think that last year's hurricane was bad, do a google search on the October or Columbus Day Storm. I am not sure how bad it was up in Seattle, but where we lived in Portland it just about leveled everything. Everyone was without power for at least 2 weeks. I remember walking to school over downed power lines.
Seriously... living in the woods is not for the meek or mild. I cannot believe that my ex is still living out there in the boonies. She was far more suited to living in a condo. One of our neighbors there was completely fed up with living out there, and he had his place for sale when I left. He wants to return to the safety and life of living in a condoplex. No mud, no floods, no fields to tend, trees to manage, roads to grade, snow to dig out of, yadda yadda.
Geez... I thought that you were out there in the woods from all the complaining. If you live on a golf course, I take back all the sympathy.
heck, I even have a Lake!
Happy New Year, everybody.
Thanks Bob, you too! Have a ice tea on me!

Gloppy out this morning. I should call for a winter gathering. I trudged and scouted a small portion of the trail system that we stealth volunteers take care of and there's lots of limbs, vine maple, and alder strewn over it. Saw one moderately sized tree across it. There'll be more too. We'll have an unofficial work day on it when the snow melts. That way we can have a car relay too and I won't have to pack the Barbie Saw as far.
Happy New Year!!
what kinda beer is in it?
