howdy chuck,,the weather here is just what TD said,,i couldn't stay warm today..thats one thing I don't miss about bowhunting,,that sitting waiting on daylight to come on a 25 degree morning with a 20 mph wind....
It was a beautiful day in NW PA. Rode Dolly for 2.5 hrs with my friend, Kathy. She's doin great! Took her down a steep hill and across a creek. Then only had to go a few 100 yds on a blktop rd and a truck went speeding by...she was fine. Then rode by the gun range, of course someone was setting up, and just after we got past it they shot. Both horses spooked a little, but we made them stop and stand. Shortly after that a dog came running out at us. That spooked them more than the rifle fire, but they still weren't bad. I think she was glad to get back to the barn.

It rained here all day yesterday and today. Last month, 3 bald eagles flew over our house. I like seeing them, but not here. Always worry about them getting my cat or Rat Terrier or clean out our pond. An otter wiped out alot of fish last yr including our Coys.
