Started snowing in West Point,Ms. around 7 this morning, quit around 11. Did not stick ( thanks be to God ) Piled firewood on the Porch yesterday. High temp. for today is 38 dropping to 26 tonight. Will spend late afternoon deer hunting from a shooting house. They should walk this afternoon. In the morning Bay my Boykin and I head to Prairie Wildlife for a tower pheasant shoot. Will shoot my RBL on the tower birds and break out
the PH for the walkup on the birds missed out of the tower. Great fun for dogs and hunters. The may be a bit nasty, but retirement is good.

On the south shore of Lake Ontario we have 10" or so and the good news is sunshine!
With any luck the government will be shut down for awhile.

I am in sight of DC. If we could only get the Federal Government to shut down for a month or two, we would be in hog's heaven.

George King was a wonderful, generous, unassuming man and I always enjoyed talking with him.

I rate his "That's Ruff" among the true classics in my library - right up there with titles by Burt Spiller, H.P. Sheldon, G.B. Evans, W.H. Foster, Nash Buckingham, Corey Ford, Frank Woolner, Gene Hill and a small handfull of others.

Thanks Rick for posting that. I couldn't remember the authors name and was waiting to get home from work--the author is George King. I haven't read GBE's book because it is the last one that I haven't read, and once I read it, well there will be no more GBE, so I am kind of holding on to it .
Snow wasn't supposed to start until after 5 here, but started around 1:30, only got 2 inches so far, but maybe we will get more than was predicted.
Baked venison steak and apple pie, along with a Great Lakes porter for dinner--good comfort food during a snowstorm.

Where do I start? 18"-24" predicted snowfall, wind gusts 35-50mph+, 20 degrees. All in all, WINTER SUCKS! I'm getting too old for this crap.

Can't wait for the Southern.

Yea Murph, would love to see the Govt. shut down for 6 months, but they still get paid when they don't work. I don't!

Plenty of bourbon, wine and vittles. Only my two labs like this crap so I guess not all is lost.

Generally I like 3-4 inches of this stuff as long as deer seasons still in . But this time of year it isn't any longer !

But on the other hand (provided Dullus doesn't shut down) I'm outta here in about 25 days for the Philippines . After a month there I get back in perspective again . Well that's been the case in the past , with the new grandson this time it just might be a bit different

Man, the Philippines sound real good about now. Right now we've got 26" and counting as it is still snowing and blowing.
