Winters like this one...well like most of them...are the reason I generally like to enjoy the event when and if they happen vs the hunt. Of course when I first joined the boards it was fun looking at clown maps and hoping the fantasy long range stuff would come true but more often than not they didn't. You just learn over the years...at least for me it was a learning to just enjoy the snow falling any snow. February can be fun around here and obviously March is a Winter month now it seems so plenty of time for some fun events but as far as an extended winter stretch...sure doesn't feel like we have one of those coming but that's just my opinion and in no way am I saying that those that love to shouldn't track the long range. Seems like there has been lots of education going on lately which is awesome.
