Good luck JB.  I forgot you had that track truck.  Cool!  Is that what you always use to get to your house or do you have a snowmobile too?  Would love to see pics of it.
Yes I have a snowmobile too. Usually we take that back and forth to the fish house. But I had the track truck out to drag the trail and I moved the smaller fish house out of the donut hole. So since it was already out and it is a much warmer ride we just took that out. Fishing was kinda slow yesterday, but we kept 2 nice Walters and 1 Sauger. No keepers so far this morning.
My ice fishing rigs.

-10 right here in International Falls. Bright sun with clear skies. Wind seems to be blowing. Might be my imagination but the sun seems warmer coming through the window these days. Maybe it's just wishful thinking. 6 months from now the ice will be gone, the lawn will need mowing and the mosquito's will be driving us nuts.    :smiley:

As mentioned this should be Zims last game. Seeing the Bears run wild over the Vikings would be a fitting end. However the Bears seem to be in worse shape then the Vikings. Who da thunk it?

Very cool JB.  There was one like that for sale here in town a few years back and I salivated over it many times.  I keep my house in the same area Glenn but I do move in shallow or out deep but keep it close to the house so it is easier to get it off in the spring.  JB my neighbor has a Bearcat and I keep telling him to get a new one so I can buy his.  I think it is about 10 years old.  My 98 Skidoo runs good and is all I really need but a guy needs to constantly upgrade ya know.   :happy1:  :sleazy:

Well, everything is back in the garage where it belongs. I had to switch the battery out to get it to start. Trying to jump it wouldn't work. Glenn, I do move around some. Basically move deeper or shallower depending on the time of year. Usually straight out in front of the house. I do have skis for it to. Just haven't put them on yet. A set that I made.

Morning boys.  It is exactly -24.0 here too.  I agree enough of this.. A 20 something above would feel great!  They are coming...   I don't have a lot going on today and that is ok.  I will ship the last of the football pool prizes.  Other than that I think I will take it easy.  You all stay safe and warm.

Mornin' gang! -5 at choretime heading for a high in the mid-single digits above 0. Quiet Monday so far. Suspect everyone's still in "too cold to get excited about doing much" mode today like they were most of the weekend. Fine with me. Plenty of paperwork to do while the milkhouse heater warms my feet.  :campfire:

Morning boys. 1 above this AM heading for a high of 19. Think I need to break out the shorts and crocs. Stopped at Napa last night and they had a semi battery that pretty much matched what I had for the track truck. So a $143 later I have a new battery. That was way cheaper than I thought it would be. I was expecting a $200 bill. I like it when it goes that way. :happy1: Not usually how it works for me. I put the charger on it last night, so it will have a full charge when I put it in tonight. Need to stop and pick up a couple mouse traps after work tonight. We have a shrew that has been hanging out in the wood shed that needs to be evacuated.
Otherwise just another  :bs: day in the salt mines. They went back to all needing to wear mask here at work again no matter of shot status.  :crazy: Have a good one boys.

My office as well,last week at my office our entire staff doned masks.

triple vaxed/booster'd,had covid last fall now has it again :thumbs: So why put this unknown effects vaccine into our bodies? proven it doesn't work just like wearing masks doesn't protect us.

snow1,
Maybe think of the vax in the same context as wearing a seatbelt. Wearing one doesn't prevent you from having an accident nor does it prevent someone from crashing into you however, it certainly can have a big impact on the result of the accident.
