Well boys, what's your temperature like now?

-5 (F) with 40-50mph winds... Snow moving in (and a winter storm warning) which I have to always stay stop of. My plowing rig is a 1985 Honda 250 Fourtrax 2WD I got for 700 bucks a long time ago and jerryrigged a plow to. Someday I'll get something newer, bigger, badder... someday. :p

Remember that Lonesome Dove line? "You know Deets. He ain't one to give up on a garment because it's got a bit of age on it." Yeah... that's me.

5" of heavy wet snow last night. 30F now. I feel like I'm now in the Bahamas! Or at least in Tanganyika in July. Ha! Ha! Ha!

You ought to set up a croquet course? LOL
 
I still have that shovel.
Too late, I already shoveled it! LOL. But this time of year, its usually "dry" snow, but this was heavy and wet like a spring storm. 10F tonight and I'll be out working in it. Makes one feel alive! Kind of like shooting a Creedmoor? Ha! Ha! Ha!

Stop picking on that skidmore.
 
It warmed up to -15°C here, so my brother and I went coyote hunting. Nice to get out and help the local ranchers with problem animals during calving season.

Oops, forgot the windchills of -20 to -25. Wouldn't want to shortchange the weather! Yahoo!

Well! Here the high today was a whopping -1F.
I told @ActionBob that I do not understand why anyone would want to live here on purpose. I am looking forward to moving!!

oh! And -18F tonight :E Angry:
 
0F now with low of -8F tonight. We’ve gotten quite a bit of snow the last few days. Driving to Frisco, CO tomorrow for a doctors appointment. That should be fun. At least I don’t have to go all the way to Vail this time.

How low can it go! Ha! Ha!

Oh…WAY lower is the stinking problem! Last winter we had two weeks off -30F to -40F! I told Bob when we move, if he ever gets homesick, he can go sit in the chest freezer. Won’t be as cold as here outside, but he can make do!
 
A high of 20f and low of 7f today. It’s been a mild winter here, this is as cold as it has been since the cold snap right before Christmas.
You need to spend some time in a walk in freezer to commiserate with some of the rest of us. Ha! Ha!

I haven’t sold near the firewood this years as years past. I get excited this winter for a good frost so the ground will solid enough to drive on.
I’m sure we will pay for this nice weather sometime, but for now there are few complaints.
