Winter is like being stuck in an elevator with the ex wife.
Time slows to an imperceptible gray crawl. And spring seems to be a lifetime away............

Big gusty wind and 24 degrees at my house. I think some of the gusts are 40+ knots. Don't know what wind chill that is but I sure wouldn't want to be playing football 10 miles from here!

my 5 and 8 year olds had soccer games in it today. Rather comical. Goals blowing over, balls kicked in the air heading backwards. 23 deg. with 30 mph winds at game time. Don't think I will fish tonight.

minus 1 at the summit this morning,the winds were honking,about 6 inches of new snow,only lasted 4hrs skiing,getting soft as i get up in age. the good thing is that just like fishing,the worse the weather the less the crowd and more times than not better conditions skiing and more fish when fishing.

It's times like this when I ask myself why the hell did I move back north from Miami ... as I'd much rather be wearing shorts, and there is great fishing in South Florida and the Keys ... including some great back country fishing in the Everglades ...
