    It was -15 below this morning, that's a bit chilly. I'll be out this evening as long as the wind direction holds true. Didn't go this morning though, bad wind direction.

    TeeJay and Tim, did you guys get out this morning?

    Haha! Helloooooo red! :D

    It's really really windy and cold here in Toledo. I think back in my hometown in NE Ohio is getting hit with some snow :) Can't wait to get back there to hunt after the semester ends!

    -15 is pretty chilly! It's not too bad here. 15 degree temps with -5 windchill and gusts up to 35mph. Its the blowing snow that is a PITA.
