Just got through plowing my driveway, then headed down to a neighbors and did hers along with a 1/4 mile of sidewalk.
Just put another pot of coffee on.

UPDATE:
Snow, sleet and freezing rain here overnight and today. Killed a meat deer Saturday. Single digits the next couple of days. I saw zero deer this morning. Our deer don’t know how to act in this kind of weather.
I was out sighting in the new AR and found this little gem.

Post hunting time usually fills up quickly for me. Between gymnastics, wrestling and other events, the kids' schedules keep us busy. Outside of that, weeks like this keep us hunkered down, feeding the fireplace. Looks like the weather will break next week and I can get out to set some snares and do a little coyote hunting. Stay warm and happy shoveling.

With the recent weather I got a lot done on the new to the family race Jeep. Shop stayed 40-50* the last few days, It’s been single digits outside.
Had my fist colonoscopy yesterday, things went fluid you might say. All good though, don’t have to do that again for a while

Thought that I would get on top of the snowstorm today so headed out and plowed my driveway and some sidewalks.
6" of nice fluffy snow and by the time that I got done there was another 1/2 inch back where I started. I'll head out this evening again and hit it again during a lull in the storm. Then it is suppose to snow pretty much all night and all day tomorrow.

Its been so cold i havent wanted to get outside. The cold bothers me more the older i get. I have a bunch of projects i want to get done on my truck and its just been too cold. I dont have a heated shop. Plan to install a trailer brake controller, swing case tool boxes, grill marker lights, and bed rail system. All backed up projects.

Been out wolf hunting a couple times. No luck yet. I'm trying to call one in with a mouth blown predator call and a mouse squeeker call. I also use a mouth blown coyote howler to entice them. Hoping to get out again in a couple days. Took the lab dog with me last time as bait so to speak. She stays within 30 yards or so and I watch her closely. I used to take my Norwegian Elkhound with me when he was a live when I called coytes. It really worked slick to distract them. I'd like to get a couple coyotes too but I don't think fur prices are very good. Maybe just tan them for decoration for my man cave.
I need to get busy reloading some rifle ammunition too. And we need some more snow so I can get out on my snowshoes. Probably use them if we get some more while I'm wolf hunting.

In North Idaho, the only luck I've had with calling in wolves was with howl calls, but I haven't been able to get an actual shot at one. They are so dam smart. Have you heard of this organization?:

At the moment, I'm getting a new Savage 110 Lightweight Storm in 6.5 CM setup to sight in. And working on research for a colorado muley hunt this fall with my dad and brother. Also, reloading for my brother for his new Tikka T3x Lightweight in 7mm RM. Oh, and not to mention, procrastinating on fixing stuff around the house that is going to need attention at some point...

Slugz; I have to complement you on your success, and the vibrant colors on all the photos that you post. What do you use to take the pics?

Thats the new S24 Samsung. Son uses a Iphone Pro 14. I went Samsung for the 100x zoom. Other than that they are the same camera ( in a phone)
Im sure the real Pros use something more high end than that.

Thats 70 yards away with the sun at the wrong angle from my A Frame blind. I had some honker pairs skirt me and land to sun themselves twice that day.
