its 0* with a -15 wind chill. Too cold in the basement to work on traps. Which is what I do sometimes when I'm unable to sleep like this.
I don't know how my wife does it but she can hit the bed and be asleep in 5 minutes. I've never been able to do that.
We got around 2 inches of snow and maybe a half inch of ice on top of it last night. I'm glad I pulled traps. I was thinking about putting a few back out but I don't think its gonna get warm enough to melt this ice crust in the next 10 days which is the end of our trapping season for everything except beaver.
Guess I'll do a little surfing and play a couple of games of spider solitaire and try the bed again. Have a good night.

Same with me! Another weekend with wind howling. Snow then ice then rain and back to snow. Last weekend without power for 16 hrs. Hope it is not the same this weekend!

230 just got in wife stuck a 20 in a dollar machine and hit 700 bucks. Nice babysitting money we drove to watch the grandkids about 2 hours so my daughter and son in law could do a date night. We hardly ever play but was just kicking back and unwinding after checking in .
