You know its the dead of winter when.....
 

You see a snow plow and for 3 seconds you actually see a cooler rack with a cooler in it where the plow is... so you blink and look again... nope... its just a plow... :(

or, you can't remember the last night you went to sleep sober... :gu: :gu: :gu:

you walk out back to test swim a new plug off your dock and there's about 20 guys playing hockey!! this sux.

You go down to the breachways and there's no one there!

You entertain the idea (briefly) of "fishing" for squirrels that are destroying your birdfeeders.

When I can walk to work.....................

:eek: Frozen already Goosefish???????:smash:

When your driving over the bridge and wondering what the wind is doing - you look down at the SEA SMOKE
:smash: :smash: :smash:

WHen you get in the rig to drive to work and the cab just starts to warm up by the time you are there...:smash:

The guides on your rod freeze up after the 40th winter striper:D :D :D

everytime you have a coffee in your hand and your near your car you open the trunk thinking its time to gear up

you open your trunk to put the groceries in ,and it doesn't smell like pogies anymore..:rollem:

You actually miss the smell of yer waders, after wearing them all night:smash:

Confessions of a Chunker :hihi:

theres no more herring or mackeral scales stuck on the wifes sterring wheel:rolleyes:

Saw my old 1985 F-250 ex cab today, for the first time since I sold it 7 years ago.... some sumbitch took the cooler rack off, and put a plow on!.... also don't understand how such a real pretty truck turned into such a rusty, dulled out, fugly, POS.... for a second, I almost missed that .30 over 460, with the dual feed 850 Holley, edelbrock manifold, crane cam, but then I drove by the sunoco station, and that feeling slipped right away......:hihi:

speaking of motors. i sat in my roadster today with a blown small block, and started it up in the garage. just kind of sat there idling for a few minutes with my hands on the steering wheel, my mind off on a long straightaway somewhere. glad nobody came in and saw me!

Karl,miss it more than the haul $#@ tempest:huh: :D
Ya and ya know it's winter when your indoors more and realize when ya look in the mirror your gettin older cause ya start placeing your hair rather than combing it.

Nah,it must just be the hat ya wore in the summer:D

Yeah it's kinda like that,you know when it's been that long when you miss you're own stink!
We all like "our own Brand"!

KARL... I HAD ONE TOO!!!! Plain cab though. Oh I miss that truck except the gas station part, dual tanks. 85 F-250 351W HD/HO red.
A friend fm Maine said if you ever sell it.... So he became the new owner. Restored the body and has done no engine work. Daily driver:eek:
