I hope. Even cats leave sign in snow

They keep upping the snowfall potential for our area. Ugh. I k ow we need moisture but 8” to 12” is not good especially with wind and subzero windchills.
Stay safe you guys and keep an eye on the weather.

Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

Stuff ought to move good tonight. If freezing rain comes in driving will be dangerous. You can drive on snow but ice not so much. Highways should get pretreat. County roads unles paved will not. Ice even on gravel is nothing to play with.

We are definitely watching the weather. We are going to pull a few places in Saturday that ee know will be difficult to get to.
Our first real check day started out with a coyote for Joe and a mess of coons for us both. The skinning rig finally got some action. We put a several new sets in on good sign and are optimistic!
in 30 minutes we start ckeck day number 2.

Joe and I are having a great time out here. So far I have yet to connect on a coyote but Joe has got a couple now. We have both been catching coons, skunks and opossums. I got a little complacent and a coon got aholld of my boot. He didn't get any skin but tI am glad I have a second pair to use now! We checked out a couple of new properties that have promise but did not set them. The winter storm has us cautious and we will likely pull some of out line out until after the storm. Our progress will be low for a few days but we are still prepared to enjoy our time here.
