Ice storm XE-16
My first wild bird hunt with my special order CSMC Fox....It was are annual Kansas bird hunt. It stormed the whole way from Ohio, freezing rain. Interstate 70 was a mess with wrecks every 5 to 10 miles, we almost crashed on a bridge in Kansas city, two other drivers had lost control on the ice in front of us, Steve never touched the brakes and we squeaked through untouched. We had my all wheel drive Toyota Sienna van that year. That night we watched the news to find out 7 people had lost their lives on 70 that day. The storm stalled out and moved at a snails pace for three days. Sunday we woke to some light snow and we were out for the morning hunt. It was a mild morning for Kansas and the hunt was good. About 9:30 the next band of weather came...freezing rain. I hunted till about 11:30 and headed for the van for coffee and meet up with hunting bud. At the van Steve asked what happened to your gun...I looked and the barrels had a sheet of ice 1/4" thick! I hunted with the receiver under my coat and the barrels sticking out...WOW...I broke her in right. No harm was done to her. (-: SXS Ohio
