Thanks, Charlie! It's a nice day here, too. Went duck hunting this morning at the Swan Lake Refuge in 15 degree weather and had to break through 3/8" ice. Carried my EH 10, but the ducks weren't flying our way. Thousands of snow geese and speckle bellies, but all were high. No shots fired, but a wonderful morning with a young friend I've not hunted with a quite a while.
Everyday I'm above ground I consider a good day.
