Brrr.........

Well, was going to go out this morning for a quick ride. looked out the window and the thermometer read 14F and the ice on the horse trough was thick enough i had to use my boot to break thru. will get some time this afternoon and tomorrow, but looking like i will be putting some serious thought into putting her to roost for the winter. Guess i'll be seeing a lot more of you all pretty soon. until then.............

b2brand,
i feel for ya. i went for a morning, rainy ride here in eastern massachusetts knowing your weather will be here soon enough.

do you get days now and then in winter when you can sneak out? or once winter is there, you're stuck until spring? along the coast where i am, it sometimes warms up to give us a beautiful ride in the middle of those long bleak days of winter. they are so nice.

i hope you get some of those this winter. warms the soul.

Just got back from a 40 miler and will be riding the horses Sunday. Trying to get as much riding time in before it gets cold. Be switching from Bonneville to Walking horse when it does get cold.

You guys would have to break out the ski wear for that weather. We lived in Honolulu for four years, and Hawaii, no doubt is best weather around.

Moved back to Florida and wife want's heated gear.

Winter

Cross Country Skis, Snow Shoes, and Ice Fishing Gear, bring it on winter. I might not be able to ride my bikes but I am going to have a lot of fun in the deep snow.
