Thanks Uncle Russ! (can you send us some snow...?) HA

Yes Sir, Yes Sir, three train loads.
All from my yard....worst winter ever here, and you good folks that really need all this snow ain't got it. Hardly seems fair, wouldn't ya say?

Anyway, I wish you guys the best. You've planed and worked hard, and "by-golly" you deserve it.

I'm going to make every effort to get there.  If there isn't enough snow are we carrying our snowshoes on our back?

Yeah, that is the plan. Just found out I have to tweak the course some too, but that is okay - we have about 260 acres out there....

Which yes, that is the weekend after the biathlon. I was thinking you were saying "next weekend" - I'm okay now...

I miss the 60's we had at the begin of the week, 12inches here in Austin, and it made the snow blower grunt a bit.

  Looks like the 30's coming back by Friday. Can hope, but as I will be in the twin city's at the airport Hilton from the 2nd through the 6th, I wont be bothered by snow!!. ;)

Lucky dog we had 8" or so
The cattle yards had just started to dry up for us
Looking forward to coming over for the shoot
Is there anyone over there to rent some snowshoes for kids
My source here fell through and now I'm scrambling

I just verified with the camp that we will be able to use theirs. They might be large for a 5 yr old...

I think we have some nice awards, and got a couple more inches of snow this morning! Lots of warm weather though.
