yes... lets hope for more reasons than just for play, and that it comes on time and sticks around for the duration for the southern half of the state. Have never heard of the "polar coaster" before, isn't that kinda what we have dealt with the last few years? not quite sure. Anxiously awaiting what John has to say when he posts his seasonal forecast.
Though I hope for snow, and I hope for cold a bitterly cold winter would restrict my snowmobiling due to the extra time needed to keep everything running on the farm. Cold is one thing. Long periods of deep cold are good at finding every small weak spot in any machinery no matter how carefully you maintain it. Plus you have to keep extra care with the animals. So let it snow. Let it stay, but I hope long ugly subzero stays away.
