    Snow Day!

    Howdy Folks!
    While I'm looking at the snow coming down outside my window, I got to wondering what I'll do with my day. Then I wondered what everybody else does when they can't get out to hunt. I'd go hunting regardless of snow, but can't afford to catch cold or anything before my surgical date rolls around. But I was curious what you do on those days when you just can't hunt.

    Everybody likely has a plethora of other things, chores, research, books to read or other activities they can enjoy on snow days, and I'd like to know your favorite activity when it just ain't a good day to swing a coil. Share it with us (but keep it clean), and I'll be posting one of my favorite alternative activities a bit later on. I'd like to see what you enjoy before showing you my alternative. You know, show me yours and I'll show you mine! That sort of thing! LOL.

    All seriousness aside, show us what you enjoy doing on snow days. Just one, maybe two is enough, as I'd like to hear from everybody on the forum on this one.

    Blessings,
    M-Taliesin

    This weekend M-T is just going to be spent in front of the computer.. I came down with a super bad cold and any moving around just causes a real bad hacking cough. Reading and some research
    Today is my day

    Football, 3 games. Reading. Metal detecting forum. Keeping the fire going. Warm cup of coffee, with just a little aiming fluid added. And hoping for a thaw.
    Tomorrow should be a great day, provided nothing stops me from preventing it from not happening.

    Howdy Folks!
    I promised to provide my favorite alternative activity when not able to get out and hunt. One of my favorites is to get out to the shooting range with Pipster. Here is how we enjoy a snowy day, whenever he is off work, that is. And that ain't often these days!

    This is a pretty old video, made before surgery got cancelled first time around due to a blood clot that developed in that leg. I finally got another date for surgery on December 31st, but they couldn't find a vein to start an I.V.! Now my next attempt is scheduled for January 25th. Hopefully everything will go right this time!

    Snow here.

    Did some Dance Dance Revolution (favorite way to exercise, and fun) and cleaned the house. Shoveled snow. Exciting.

    Snow Snow Snow. An unusual storm has drop 7 1\2 inches here in Little Rock, Arkansas. That is a big storm for this area. Guess I will stay in and enjoy it from the windows in the motorhome. Good hunting to those who can get out. Glenn

    In the winter time when I cannot detect I am usually found out in the wilds around where I live Coyote hunting. The rest of the wildlife need a break from these particular predators so we do our part to thin them down...
