Utah Bob #35998 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 13°. Just looked out the door. Snow seems to have stopped...maybe. Can't tell how much came down. I think I'll just go back to bed. It would be nice to see the sun today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Sage, SASS #49891 Life Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 15 here this am Bob. Sittin here drinking my coffee (with a small amount of Baileys dontcha no). Probably 4 or 5" of the white stuff now and not much sun at all yesterday. Just got an email from Boston Annie from Yuma about next months annual Territorial Prison shoot and she says the weather was cold yesterday am....40 and was up to 65. Damnation...can't wait to get down there and do a little shootin in that heat wave. Me and Awful Ernie were the only ones to show up at last Sundays shoot, Saturday was a bust too. Freezing fog and could barely see the targets. Least I didn't have to clean the guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 All of the trees are sagging to the ground from the weight of the ice clinging to them. 28 degrees and some folks are without power, including Hatfield. If the power holds out long enough to fix breakfast, I think I'll go to town and do a little shopping. I gots to get a new battery for my watch. If the power goes out I'll go to town for breakfast!!

Pack Saddle Slim, SASS #73122 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 We've got about 8 inches on the ground. More expected through the day. The temperature is hovering around 10 degrees. Supposed to get below zero tonight. I've got heaters in all the water troughs to keep them from freezing, plenty of hay in the barn, a full woodshed, and a fire going in the stove. I guess it's time to sit in the ol' rocker by the stove with a good book and watch the snow pile up outside the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freezing fog and could barely see the targets. Least I didn't have to clean the guns. Not a good BP day for sure. I was getting tires on Saturday. I figured tha fog would lift by Sunday and I'd go shoot. But you could hardly see down to the shed from the house by Sunday and I wasn't about to get out on Satan's highway for 35 miles. Maybe global warming will set in for next month's shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-BAR #18287 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 That global warming stuff moves around, apparently. None in Missouri or Washington, DC today, but at least a team from Missouri has found someone they can beat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electricity is hand stuff . . . . but I sure would not like to be dependent upon it. Not to be trusted. Propane stove . . . . wood stove for heat. A generator for necessary electric power during extended electrical outages. Self seficiency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Too many cold winter bivouacs in Germany. I don't care to see another snowflake in my life. Except pictures of course. Utah Bob's pictures are pretty but they don't make my ears, nose, hands, or feet hurt. A Birdgun Quail axiom: Hot weather can be real uncomfortable. Cold weather can hurt!
