That just shows how mother nature can take you out in the blink of an eye. Thanks for posting.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

My MIL and FIL lived through that storm they told stories of some roads that didn't open for weeks. Wind dynamics were not understood at the time and certain road cuts would trap snow.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

Same here.
A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

I read an article about it every year. Crazy stuff.
I was hunting this morning when the front hit around 8:30. Watched it coming for about a half hour. Lake was pure glass all morning, then we had white caps due to the 25 mph wind. Temperature dropped almost 15 degrees immediately. It was wild.
I just turned it on . I was looking bird dogs in the butt this morning. ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/AvUPi.gif)

Wow, how tragic. I had never heard about that thanks for sharing.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.
