I only like snow on 2 conditions.........
As long as it’s not on my roof, or on my driveway.......
It’s a love hate relationship.

I have the "Ice Report" App, there are reports of 1 to 1 1/2" of ice near our area. About 5 more to go!
If you guys feel REALLY bad for us "snowbirds" you could always facetime us when you're out on that ice...just sayin

I am more of a “Heat Kingdom Hermit”
After shoveling the driveway, roof rake the house, it was deemed a shower was required.
Afterwards, it’s some Peach Mango Green Tea in my Engel Cup, slippers.......

It’s only going to get worse for me Kevin.
See at some point, I will make marinate.
3 days of Venison in it, and then heat the garage.
While out there, I will have to smell the Jerky in progress...........
Oh, and the 3 days instead of 1 In the marinate are AWESOME.

For me it was work till noon, come home and plow snow, fire up the grill, Yukon golds in to bake, two boneless rib eyes and a pork tenderloin on the grill, Spartan basketball and Lion football on the TV, steak, potatoes and loin in my belly and now I have heavy eyes. Nap time. Pecan cheese cake and coffee later.
That’s to much work Jerry.....
For me it’s.........

Hate to say it--but its going to be close to 80 here today. Just got back from going fishing with Slab (Ed] we got 16 Crappie, a Bass, and a Stripper. He took us on Griffin Lake, fun time. Will post pictures after lunch. Were meeting Yankee Doodler, Carol, and Ed at the Oakwood BBQ. Haven't seen any shovels around here.
Your gonna love the ribs at Oakwood.....mmmmmm good
Ribs sound good. I think I'll throw a couple slabs in the smoker Thursday for the Spartans bowl game. Sweet potatoes, mac and cheese and home made applesauce to go with it. Thanks for the idea, G.
Weather reports looking favorable for next couple of weeks. I think we'll be fishing by the new year. If not here, then up around Stanton. Time to drop the portable out of the rafters and charge up the Vex. I made an adapter for my 6" auger so I can use my cordless drill two years ago and am excited to get it on the ice to see how it works.
I drill way too many holes to use electric. I'm the "Drill 400 holes before I start fishing" guy! If I brought my chainsaw, I would connect them all and then troll!
How do you launch your boat?

Brisk walk along side of all the connected holes? Ride my side by side next to the holes and hold the rod? Sit in a little sled with my rod while someone pulls me on the quad?

I don’t follow how this fits in?
Care to enlighten?

Not real difficult. I bought an Eskimo 6" at a garage sale for a couple of dollars, added new blades for around 30.00. The handle is made to be removed so I matched the handle size to electrical conduit, welded a solid rod in one end of the conduit and ground a hex on the rod with my grinder. I had to drill a hole in the conduit so the retainer bolt would go through it to hold it to the auger. To keep it from dropping down the hole if it comes out of the drill, I cut a 8" circle out of the top of a drywall compound bucket, drilled a hole the same size as the auger shaft and cut a slit from the edge to the hole so I could fit it around the shaft of the auger below the retainer bolt. I have a Ridgid 18v 4ah brushless drill for turning it. The reason I went with Ridgid is they have a life time free batteries on their cordless tools. After I finish my spaghetti I'll take a picture. I will take the factory handle along in case I run out of battery and have a gas auger for those days when I need 400 holes.
Rich, I'll put you up against Capt. Sinky when it comes to drilling a lot of holes. Some days he ends up on the other side of the lake.
I take a few buddies and "hopefully " we take turns. Like to drill them all at one time in an area so I don't bother the fish
