Well,.....
Thanks a million Mother Nature! Thanks a Million!
(or should I say $140.00)
The price of having my septic pumped because my mound system
has froze up for the very 1st time EVER since we have lived here
in 18 years!
Gotta love the frost pounded down that far!
Just got in from the wind and cold,.. helping the septic dude under the deck.
Nothing like lying on your belly under the deck in February when it is 10 degrees out.
Yup,... Loving it!
Living the dream baby!

SNOW.
The Number 1 reason snow plowers cannot snowmobile.
1st trip UP since January 2013 was going to be this Thursday-Monday. Yes, tomorrow.
But now I'm blessed with a system snow coming in Sunday, that could produce 6"+. Trip is no doubt going to be cancelled, and if my luck plays out, the system will track further north and miss us. So I'll be out another trip and a few thousand dollars.

Isn't that the truth! Only worse job to have that kills sledding. Is driving tow truck. Had years I couldn't even get in a ride, when I did that.
Funny thing,...
Looks like next Tuesday WE are actually suppose to get around 4 or more
HERE finally,... and that is when I am looking at going up to the U.P. also!
Watch,... OUR winter will come in Spring this year.
BRING IT MOTHER NATURE!!!
Not too happy about using our septic system as "HOLDING TANKS"
until a big thaw though. Going to have to teach them women to
take shorter showers!!!
UGH!!!!
That Frost is DEEEEP!!!!!!!
Plus it looks like "oil film" floating on the top (before it was pumped)
meaning uh-oh,.... NEW PUMP TIME!
Always Something!

O.K. Mother Nature,....
Tonight, and tomorrow are the B I G moments my area has been waiting for.
Like I have already pizzed and moaned about,.. you have already caused the septic
to freeze,... it is already into the 1st week of MARCH,.. I have taken some time off,...
The National Weather Service has already "colored in" our counties for the anticipated
"UP TO EIGHT INCHES OF SNOW!!" Oh Boy!,...
WHAT????
....Now it is downgraded already to 3 to 5?,......
(silence)
...........
Then the weekend is calling for mid to high 30's??
WHAT????
(starring down at fingers on the keys,....)
ugh.
Well Mother Nature. I will Wait and See,... and this time,...
H O P E,.... and Do another Snow Dance,... and be happy for
what I receive,... because I know there are others in far away
counties who are starving and get no snow at all,... and,...
What? What part of Louisiana picked up how much snow????
The pan handle of Texas? Nashville? Georgia? SOUTH CAROLINA??????
Oh well.
Gassed Up anyway!
(would be nice to wave to the groomer at least ONCE this year!)

WOW!!!!! Boy this mother nature sure hashad mood swings! First she punishes us brutal cold, then teases us with a little of white gold here and there, then flips us the bird and dumps coupous amounts of snow in the south! I just want to know who really pissed her off this past summer?!

South East Minnesota is living under the same bubble. Everyone at work was telling 3-5 or more for Tuesday trying to get me excited because they know I want to ride around here. I told them it will never happen because that's the way the season is going. Woke up at 645 and nothing but a dusting, it is snowing good now but I'm sure it won't last long. When we have a good season it's really good but when we have a low snow season it gets ridiculous. Oh how I wish I lived by a big lake! I have been to the UP 3 times this season and rode over 1550 miles and if the weather holds out I'm going back at the end of March. If you live in Minnesota you must travel to ride this season.

Worked 3rd shift last night, picked up quick dusting around 1am. Got up around 10:30am and take peek outside at our biggest snow of the season and..... wait....what's that?.........grass blades sticking up through snow!!!
First thought that comes to me?... Oh man, Vin's gonna be pissed!! Lol
Well, maybe next year dude!!!

whopping 2" over here that's all getting blown SE now by the winds......enjoy Medford!
Incredible.
LOL John! KENTUCKY! I know!,... My Aunt, just North of Nashville called,.. and asked if I would
PLEASE take our winter back! I would LOVE to!
Eagle1: Too funny Bro! But you are right!
Seriously though,.. They were interviewing a guy from the National weather service,.. and he was
saying that this was the first time in like 64 years (I believe that is what he said),... that this area
has NOT had more than a 2" snowfall at a time. Weird. VERY weird. With the warm weather predicted
for the upcoming next week and none of the local trails NEVER opened,... THAT has to be the first that
I can EVER remember.
I know I started this thread mostly as a comedy gripe for us within the central NO - SNOW - BUBBLE,....
which on a recent trip to Minnesota I found is a very consistent band WEST of me,....(probably 40 miles or so to the South of Me,.. to 20 miles to the North of Me,..) from the Bay of Green Bay to,...probably the Dakota's by the
looks of the "Bubble".
I will "Trailer" the sled to ride,... and those who do so that HAVE to and do not gripe about it,... so be it,...
But as long as I have lived,... AND will reside,... in an area that has historically been pretty much a guaranteed
snowmobile hot spot,.......
I will gripe as loud as my fingers will let me!
or John will put up with,....
Global Warming,...Whacked Earthly Axis problems,..Cyclical whatever,....
No more than a 2 inch snowfall at a time in a complete winter season? 40miles NORTH of
GREEN fricking BAY WISCONSIN??
I will tell you one thing for sure,... locally,... if "Cabin Fever" ever was at an all time high,....
It is surely off the charts in this neck of the woods. This is crazy.
And Local business HERE has felt the economic hit of NO SNOW for sure also,....
We take for granted that we can "sled anytime we want" from basically late November til Mid March,...
So when it isn't here at ALL??? YIKES!
The Fat Lady is Singing!
ugh.
(I tried to make a snow angel earlier today,... but put a hole in my jeans from rubbing on the gravel)

My little brother from another mother (and the bowels of Southern Michigan!)
I am Sooooo jealous my friend! How did they know how to find it?? I wish I was with
them. They are in the middle of a Trans-U.P. Trek! Lucky devils.
Looks like the first part of your trip will include ROOF SHOVELING! and blowing snow!
LUCKY B@$T@*D! NIIIIIICE!!!!!!
Man,... If you were only there TODAY! I'd shoot up! What the heck is 4hours Bro!!!!!
THAT at least brightened my spirits.
Sun is shining here,.. only 8,.. and winds are really blowing.
Going to trailer NW of Crivitz later to put some miles on,...
But for our area,...and the areas stated previously,....
they "USED TO LOOK" like that above,... in a time which seemed long long long ago,...
Cool to see everyone getting some fun in!
Tom and Suzy need it!
It is about time YOU got off of work and enjoyed some time off also little bro!
ENJOY, and post pics!
p.s. with my frozen mound/septic system,... your outhouse may be MISSING when
you arrive! LOL!
Bradzoooo,....where are you???,.........
Make sure you wear one of those orange balls on top of your hat when shoveling,...
so they can FIND YOU!!!!
