Cleaned up last night's snow. Wasn't too bad as the wind was not blowing and the sun was out. 8) Going out to get some food supplies and get ready to hunker down for a long week. ::)

That's all you guys have been doing this winter....shoveling, going inside, coffee, sleep and eat, then start over again!  I had a few winters like that in Va.  Please just take it steady and easy and don't initiate any heart attacks...!

It has snowed so much here in the last 24 hours I can't even tell where the drive is anymore.   ;D ;D ;D  Might have to lock the hubs and limber up the transfer case when it's time to go out this week.....

Yep more shoveling.  My neighbor said we have had 45 inches of snow this year so far. And we haven't had a really bad snow storm yet. Most of the snow has been under 6 inches. I'm sick of this winter.
It's not my sister thats comeing with me this time. It my friend Holly, She is the one that got some plats from you. She has gotten a pair to spawn for her too. Maybe I'll ask and see if my sister wants to ride along. She would get a kick out of your fish room.

"Alice B. Toklas"..... ;D

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ec/Toklas_cookbook_cover.jpg)

Her most famous culinary experiment was fudge not brownies..... a concoction called Hashish Fudge. Made from spices, nuts, fruit, and Cannabis, Hashish Fudge quickly became a sensation in its own right. In the recipe, Alice described how it is called "the food of paradise" and goes on to suggest places where the cook might find the illegal ingredient named in its title.  No doubt she was quite a gal!
