Time for some of us to move into the 21st century. This afternoon Linda downloaded the software and the book in about 5 minutes.

Bruce is right the first chapter is a hoot.

Clay thanks this will help pass the cold nights. Now we just need to wait on Dave’s book and their two movies.:D

Not sure about our ancestors but my brother in law (retired pathologist) once told me that the perfect murder weapon is an icicle through the heart–weapon melts away, no finger prints but if you have a big mouth:D you do the time. Think I’ll stick to long bow and arrow–just to keep this on thread.

Something positive:D After 3 days of grooming our trails a total of 96 miles at average speed of 5mph we just may be able to get a dog sled out tomorrow a little over 8 feet of the white stuff so far—temps are due to plunge to – tomorrow, another gift from Canada–and we are 15 miles south of Lat 40 the good ole Mason Dixon line, you all.:roll:

Oh no it’s snowing again. Wish I could send some of this your way Bruce.

Great pictures, it doesn’t get much better then hunting with your dog. Right to worry about the lack of snow. We are getting hammered again wind and snow. Heard from friends in AK they are cancelling dog sled races due to warm temps and lack of snow:shock:

We are just over 6 feet of snow and more coming tomorrow:evil: Yep time for that 2nd retirement.

Glad to join you in the Islands:D

Yes have them, used by many mushers, heavy clunky will keep your feet warm, but for a more functional and hunting boot much lighter again—try mukluks extreme by http://www.mukluks.com

best wishes for the cat fish bait! If it helps once I went through a trauma (wound not cancer) and when the doc’s said terminal I just said wrong and thought through the process.

Don’t give up. Give Belinda my best. See you guys at ETAR again this year:D.
