Rex I will agree 100%. I have a both those beaver legs are delicious. Tender meat and lots of it. That wind down here is blowing a gale. Be another interesting day to walk. It is only going to get in the 30's today. Just right for coon hunting. Linda what are you going make TD do today? You got any honey due jobs for him?

Today is Linda's birthday, she went to her sisters house, myself and the oldest son went up to Arthur,Il. this mornin'. I batched today, that was her present today not messin' with me. That snow squaw today was heavy at times with some nasty winds. Don't think there will be any huntin' tonite. 40 degrees tomorrow and 50 by Friday most likely I'll work 1 day

Gave my dogs more straw and locked them in the barn tonight. It is 28 degrees here at 5:26PM. It is going to drop tonight. That wind is blowing harder I think. Rex I don't like the look of that picture you put on here. That looks like a blizzard. I hope it don't even look this way. Happy Birthday Linda.

Thanks guys, Rex according to Rural King I am a senior citizen now so I get a discount on senior citizen day. I'm (55). When I came home from my sisters wasn't to bad until about halfway. Then it started snowing it was pretty much white out conditions but no one was behind me so I just drove slow. There was a truck in the ditch down by my sisters house and believe it or not there was a motorcylist sitting there too. He's CRAZY!!!!!

I heard he got a DUI but didn't know he had any other charges. That is a bad place for accidents someone is always crashing there.
