Dear Mother Nature,

Dear Mother Nature,

I would love to thank you for postponing my favorite trip home for the year. I was planning on getting done with a test in an hour and heading home for a great week of sping ice fishing. Now that you have decided to put home in a blizzard state i will be stuck out here in spearfish for at least a day or two. I am very pleased that you care about my ten hour trip and all, but i would have loved it if you could have made the trip drivable in less than 15 hrs. So, here is to you Mother Nature, i will be surfing the boards of FM until the roads clear and the driving conditions get better. Here is an idea, ill just go through ND and end up at the cabin up north, man ill show you who's boss. Wait, you covered the whole state with this darn storm of yours. For this, i thank you. Ill just continue to dream about the perch i could be pounding up north and the pannies i could be hammering in Chisago.

Thanks for the Blizzard,

Dan

good post i was thinking we finally got some snow to bank the house with, but wait, it's already off the lake.....maybe next year

Dano- there is give and take on this one... You will be thanking her once spring hits and we can use the boat landings... The lakes here are way low.. it would have been nice to spead it all out a bit, and not get it all at once.. but we could still use more...

NO MORE!!! I've shoveled my walk 8 times in the past 30 hours. I'd rather have 50 inches of rain in the spring

We all should remember,that water levels are low.......

But snow takes so long to @#%$@# melt!!!

Now that im home all i can say is WOW. There is a tone of snow

The first storm, over the weekend, I was in the truck 50 of 60 hours.

The second storm, I was awake in the plow truck 65 of 72 hours, from Wed. morning at 11 am until 11 am Saturday morning.

I slept for 3 hours in a bed Thursday night, from 5 pm until 8 pm, then had (6) 20 minute naps until I got home at 11 am Sat. morning.

I then slept from 12 pm Sat. afternoon until 9 am Sunday morning.

I agree, nothing like getting 3/5 of the yearly snowfall in a week and a half.

I know the contracts that were complaining about paying too much for me plowing, 2 more plowings and they'll all be dead on average for the number of times for the year.

Now that there's no snow to plow, I can't go fishing because there's too much snow on the ice...... maybe after it hits 60 on Monday, it'll be melted down.
