I'm normally on the ice now. We had ice but not enough to walk on. At least I was able to get on the big lake this weekend and open water trap. Can't trap out of the boat in December very often here. Had fun and even got my first true albino rat. I've caught thousands of muskrats, but never a totally white, pink eyed one.

Looking at temps in the low 50's here for next four days. Usually we have a foot or two or snow on the ground now. I have not had to feed my cows yet Crazy year for sure.

Thanks for sending it my way! LOL

Been in the fifties and raining here in southeast PA since yesterday afternoon. Almost four inches so far and it's still raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock.

20 degrees and 30 mph winds right now with lake effect snow. Winter is back. Careful what you wish for.

Took the coon dog out for little while Saturday night and there were night crawlers partially out of the ground in a chopped corn field.

Easy on the hay stash

Our shallow wells have been struggling so we have been praying for rain and lots of it, thank you Jesus!

You are right though, no fun for trapping.

That type of weather is where the Pipe Dream Set is king. If nothing else, just his method of bedding is what use during the WET times. Deep bed held by the jaws and covered with a screen will keep that set working regardless of how much rain you get.

True

how its 12 degrees and going to be in the mid 40s Sunday with an all-day rain again

That’s a pile of rats SJC. I’m lucky if I see one a year, and yes I know water helps but it’s in short supply out here love the white rat. Congrats

Congratulations

Bad year for ice fishing. Last week my neighbors pond opened up & a turtle was sunning itself. The previous 1st turtle sighting was April 3rd. A co-worker had moles working already. Golf courses are already open. It's probably good for deer. I'm not sure if it will impact trees. Last winter we twice had such severe snow storms it knocked trees down. Strange how things can change. It's been nice on the heat bill but not good for firewood sales.

With this dry winter weather, are some of you watering trees?

7 degrees yesterday morning 34 degrees this morning high in the 50s today

Rivers around Green Bay are very low. Lots of worry about wild fires.

NW Missouri is dry as heck. Were under no burn orders. It's like walking on Corn Flakes in the woods. We need rain bad.

I saw a lot of motorcycles today, and a convertible. There is still a lot of salt on the road though.

yes, we need rain bad, we are in a drought!

Yes on rain Roy, thunderstorms tonight here in north central Wi
