well we just bought a camper which is going to be made into an ice shack, (may sound weird but every one here uses old campers and makes them into ice fishing shelters) so with this nice weather (like 3C today) hoping to start working on it in the next little while.

oh also have to fix up two old snowmobiles, there my grandparents which where given to me and my cousin to fix up so that should be a fun project.

Dad used to take us ice fishing and the fish had those disgusting eel like things leaching off them. But the fish still tasted good.

Lamprey or leaches?

Lamprey. Gross!

I planted a bunch more bulbs today and moved a Mule full of dirt and unloaded it into the raised beds in front of the house. I have one more bag of tulips to plant.
Also ordered a winter jacket but it didn't get good reviews so we will see if that goes back. I don't really like shopping online but i also hate shopping for clothes for myself. At least i have boots.

I hear ya there! Hard to find what fits my function and form.
I too ordered a new winter coat, it's really nice material, weight, and construction, but the upper arms are too skinny to move well...SMH...still pondering it but will probably send it back, what a PITA.

They were quite small in the winter, like 1" or less.
