My friends have those ice tents and beaver sleds and space heaters, and love to go spend the day on the ice (drinking beer) catching fish. Thank goodness they are generous people and often times like to drop some off. I love fresh fish. Although, those really are some nice fish.

With this cold weather,I could mail you a couple...

Redclub, we had -27º this morning but the wind was gone. It actually got a little warm today, so dog and I went for a walk, and did some things outside. Kind of slippery on the ice covered snow though so you have to be careful. I'd hate to fall down out there. I see they changed the forcast and they are talking only -10º tonight. So that is not too bad as long as the winds stay down.

If these cold winter keep up I am going back in permant retirement going out in this cold was no good the first time I worked why I do it know that I don't have to is beyond me. Now I remember wife thought I need something to do. Guess I did take over the house work good enough.
