Forgot to bring in mine. Snowing now. This part of Jersey is forecast to receive the least amount from this storm, but time will tell. Feel sorry for all those stranded on interstate in KY. Still have power, food and lots of beer so things could definitely be worse. Plus, my fifth granddaughter made her arrival on Wed. Healthy and happy. Life is good here.
Was out on stand last night. Perfect hunting weather but the deer decided on a different route. Sunday should be good. We shall see.

Got a bunch of snow-for Va.-but have to open the store I work for. Should be an interesting weekend.
Be safe out there if shoveling or driving.Take your time either way.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Ya can always strap on the snowshoes and do a little scouting.  Great time to see how the deer travel.  One foot is nothing.  We got 128" in 2 and a half days a couple years ago.  That's over ten feet!  I admit I didn't do any scouting, though.  Just snowblowing.  Didn't miss any work though.

Stay safe!!!

I'm down in Ross county, Ohio working. We have about 5 inches on the ground and it's still coming down. I talked to my parents in Gettysburg, Pa and they are getting hammered. Not a good day to be in the Air.

Here in Orange, Va we've got easily 12-15" of snow with another 3-5" expected today. Winds are blowing like you wouldn't believe, gusts up to 40.

Gonna be a good day to spend inside...the shop, I mean. Got a propane heater and a bow to build    :thumbsup:  Warm me up some hot choco-late and make shavings    :jumper:

We got all of 1" up here in Centre County so far.  
I'll probably shoot outside today, but it won't take long until my fingers get numb.

You can say that again. And we were talking about another hunt today. We have one more Sat. Bucky so there's still hope. I'll be the drive master.    :laughing:    :laughing:

Heck, it's a blizzard down here in Aiken, SC.  Every thing will be closed down with our 1/2 inch of snow  :) .  Not to worry though as it will be back to the low 50's tomorrow.  Oh how I Don't Miss Boston in the winter...tippit

Muzzy, I'm 12 miles north of your parents.  Expecting 20 to 30 inches by tonight.

Felix, shoot one for me.

Just north of Philadelphia.  We are getting crushed.

Traveled from VA to NJ on Thursday to get together for a hunt today. Thankfully I was able to arrow a nice doe yesterday.  Staying til Tuesday, hope to get back out on Monday.  Stay Safe!!!

Take care people

I truly wish we in Mn. We're getting that kind of snow. I and many other Minnesotans enjoy winter sports, our economy is really effected by lack of snow as so much is geared toward winter activities.

Hang in there everyone, spring is on the way !

Hope ya'll are all making it through the storm ok. Here in east Texas it's 40 degrees and sunny. But still too cold for me. I get chilly when it drops below 80.

We had 55 degrees and some sun in the Willamette valley yesterday. unseasonably warm here for some reason...... But prior to this little break we've had serious rain storms one after the other for 2 weeks... typical Oregon stuff...

Good luck to you guys in that snow storm out east.
