FINALLY!!!

This is what I have been waiting 5 long years for! Meijer in Gaylord. It's a thing of beauty don't you think?

SIGH

Three days in a row with temps above 40...then this last night. We still had lots of snow but at least we were moving in the right direction.

Most requested

Many of you ask us..."Do you have a lot of snow?" Well, as you can see we have plenty. For those of you that have been to our shooting range...those are US Poppers (over 30 inches tall) barely sticking their heads out on either side of the tree. And the other picture shows what Ron does most days around here. Move snow from one spot to another!
Either one...kind of sad.

It's what makes...

...Up North well, Up North!
Actually it hasn't been too bad. They did scare us a bit with a forecast of 2 feet in 3 days but that didn't materialize, here anyway. It is kind of depressing to think that we still have over a week until the official start of Winter. Oh well, we'll cope and at least it looks like we are pretty much guaranteed a White Christmas!

Things to come...

A Whole Lot of Rakin'...

...NOT Going On!
Occupational hazard of living in the woods....lots of leaves! This blower seems like the answer but it's not that fun either.
The first one of you that remarks that I missed some gets a bag of leaves dumped in your yard. As you can see, we have plenty to spare.
