Dat snowstorm was all the way over here in New Richmond, Wisconsin too (Western Wisconsin). We had temps in the low 30°s all day, snow and wind. More of the same tomorrow (Thursday). The snow didn't stick very long though.  It's too DanG early!!!

You're probably getting what we had this morning. It'll keep up all night then.....off and on. More predicted here tomorrow. I'll send it on your way when we're done with it.

Chet, I know you are a real nice feller and you love to share stuff with those that don't have but do me a favor close the door and keep all that white stuff and cold weather up there.  I'm beginning to doubt I will ever be ready for it again  :-\

I just got back from a trip up to Minong, Wisconsin (95 miles north of New Richmond) and it was snowing almost the whole way.  In Minong and surrounding areas it was snowing pretty DanG good! ......... ::) Or should that be pretty DanG bad!

I walked out to the barn to get some nails and a hammer and worked up such a sweat that I decided to sit down and have a glass of sweet Iced tea.  Might take a shower too.

It'll cool off some later.  It usually gets down in the 70's by the end of November or beginning of  December.  I'll stick my head back out in about a month and see if I want to go fuel up the truck.

It's gotta be Global Warming causing all this frigid weather and snow so early. ::) I personally think the government screwed up the weather when they punched a hole in the atmosphere with that DanG Space Shuttle. ;D

CHARLIE - What were you doing in Minong?  The cabin I'm going to be cutting wood at next week is only a little north of there but yet south of Solon Springs.  Used to buy a lot of beef at Link Brothers before they started turning it all into Jerky.

Spent the whole day driving around MI in the sun, blue sky, howling winds, rain sleet, hail, and snow.
Cars off the road, day become night and back again in minutes. >:(
And to top it all off, I rolled a deer on the way home. ::)

I'm moving SOUTH!!!!
Anyone wanna buy a half remodeled house ???

We got about 4" of snow last night and today and there's the possibility of another 5 to 8 tonight.  The drifts were deep enough in the lane tonight that the Dodge's axle was pushing snow ::)  It had an appointment for some exhaust work this AM and after slipping and sliding to Gaylord on the X-way it also got a couple new tires :)  I say we blame this crazy weather on Al Gore ;) ;D

Now why would anyone dislike snow? Snow is great, around here it keeps all the city folk off the roads and allows the neighborhood country bumpkin (me) to ride his ATV through the streets......

if they call for a inch or so, the brean and milk isles at the store get mobbed, people fill thier gas tanks.....

after 3 years of living in Fairbanks Alaska, nothing snow related fazes me much anymore....

Teri, where ya moving to? any ideas??? I thought you loved florida    ::)

DomR, I took my boat up to Link Recreational to have it winterized and stored for the winter. When I bought it, I got a real good 2 year deal from them. Next year I'll winterize it here and store it on my property..... I think.

I figured I was up close to your cabin, within 25 miles anyway. Just didn't know the direction.

Those Link brothers must own Minong............... :-\

My wife has four of her female cousins from Hudsonville staying at our house when they heard from home that winter had arrived in their homes.  Now they don't want to go home.  This is not good!! 

We only have one bathroom for five women to share.  :o

I hope the snow stays to the west of New England, we don't need any of thet stuff for at least another month.
