Coincidentally, we got our 1st here today also. Started about 10 this morning and snowed all afternoon. Have about 3", with temp around 30. Supposed to go up overnight to 36 and rain all day tomorrow. We always get at least a dusting by the 2nd week of deer season and it is right on schedule.

Ice and I have an uneasy truce. As soon as it gets here......game on! Keep warm and cozy Dave. And, may the only ice you get, be in a nice drink of choice.
You and me both. Somehow each year, i manage to introduce my big fat arse to ground zero at least twice. Used to be more fun when I was younger, now its scary. Isn't it amazing that when you do that, the first thing that races thru your mind is "Hope nobody saw that" and your looking around.
It has to come sooner or later. Doesn't it? I just hope any large amount holds off until I get some wood cut.
