TOPIC: We're all counting on you John !

We're all counting on you John ! 11 years 8 months ago #75472

John,
you're close enough.....
We need you to go shoot that damn groundhog ! Maybe that will break this weather. I'm usually in shorts and t-shirt by now !
Make a hat out of Punxsutawney Phil, for all I care ?

I got a boat to fix ! Cal has to make a cloud of red dust, Others have lakes to cruise, coves to find and explore, fish that need catching.

Hurry up mother nature, I'm getting antsy for some warm weather !!!!

I feel better now.... carry-on !

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.“

John,
I sure hope he was careful when he " shot himself " so you can still make a nice hat. You can wear it next spring as a warning to the next little S.O.B. that is his replacement!!!!!

Hey Guys!

The little rodent has already been put behind bars, and given a life sentence. Not to mention it has to do community service every year to predict the coming of spring.

It probably predicts it wrong just to get even.

Just in case you forgot what it looks like, here's a pic.

OK Here is a pic of Phil in his den with his mate. Yes this is the actual culprit. It was taken by me on my last trip through Punxy. It is bullet proof glass.

Is it just me, or is he laughing?? I don't think it is because of the floosy either. I still like the hat idea. It looks like here on Wisconsin's west coast we might actually see the low 50's by the weekend ( I will believe it when I see it ). That is about where the average temp should be for this time of year. I don't think it has warmed all the way up to the "average" since probably in February.

Still a foot of snow in the woods here plus 10" of ice on the lake. I guess I'll go ice fishing this Easter.

Mother nature's APRIL FOOL joke.
Saturday was 64 and sunny. Today is opening day for baseball.
And it just started snowing !!!
I think I'll just mount snow skis to the bottom of the boat ?

John,
Has that little S.O.B. kicked the bucket yet. I think they are going to put a bounty on him here in Wisconsin. Today it is in the upper 30's and windy, but we are the lucky ones. I heard that up in the Twin Cities ( Minneapolis-St. Paul) they got 10 inches of snow. That is just 130 miles north of us. That is just sick!!! It still hasn't hit 60 degrees here yet. If it waits until after next Saturday it will be a new all time record for the latest date. The average high for this time of year is the low to mid 60's. We might set a new all time low for tonight in the low 20's. Hey Al Gore, where is this "Global Warming" that we have been hearing so much about!
I still haven't even pulled the cover off my Thompson that is just sitting patiently in the garage.
There, I got that off my chest and I feel better!!! Bring on the hot weather!!!!!

I love spring too. I just wish it would get here!!!! The grass is just starting to turn green but nothing else looks like it is even starting. There is still some ice on some lakes and ponds in the area and remnants of snow piles in some shaded spots.
Last year (which was a little unusual) we were already mowing the lawn and were golfing and boating for a month.
Bring on the HEAT!!!!!!
Bill

P.S. I heard they got almost a foot and a half of snow up in Duluth yesterday.

Today it hit 80 here with maybe a 20 mph breeze. Sunny. 6% humidity. A week ago I was camped at a local lake and scaring the fish.

That groundhog, wonder if he's as tasty as prairie dog?

Well, he should be nice and tender with the beating he has been taking here!!!!! We just tied a hundred twenty year old record for the latest 60 degree day. We skipped right over them to the low 70's.
Bill
P.S. I think he might be good in a stew, and I still like the hat idea.

Re:We're all counting on you John ! 11 years 6 months ago #77004

The gloves are off!!!! This little S.O.B. is dead meat!!!! We just had 8-10 inches of snow just north of us. Last Monday it was 85 degrees. I think he would be great if he was shredded, just for principle!!! I am 55 years old and I have never seen snow on the ground in May before.
