I like it. I like how the big kids are kinds off on their own, like teen agers prefer to be. The photo bomber cracked me up.

Pretty quiet from her neck of the woods. She's probably still buying me Christmas presents. I have enough coal from the pile you gave me last year...enough already.  Plenty of snow here last night. It can stop now!!!

Well, all right, if we are going to start the parade of "Merry Christmas's" I better get in line.
Merry Christmas everyone!
As the father of a 9 year old and two 5 year olds, I totally agree with Tzone, Christmas is about kids. The anticipation, the look of joy, the squeals of excitement...it just is a time to relish.
Chirstmas is also about giving. I so enjoy giving someone a really neat present.
a rather balmy -19 here this morning, I bet ND is close to -30?
What you do today is important, you are trading a day in the rest of your life for it.

I think we probably did hit -30
I snapped a photo of the temp readout in my car this morning, -29 before the sun started to rise. I'm betting it dipped to -30 as the sun rose.
Something clever here.

I went baha-ing through the snow yesterday in my truck to retrieve my two trail cam's that I still had out. There as fresh deer sign everywhere by my stand. They have obviously herded up and are digging down to get at the new hay field. I was pretty excited to check them since I had not done so since the gun season in november. I was disappointed to find that neither one has taken a single pic since then and there are tracks all over the place in the plot they overlook.
TruthCam 35's. It appears B-man was on to something when he said his didn't work.
Guess I'll have to put my Cabelas extreme stand hunter bibs and parka to work and see for myself what's out there this time of year. My warmest boots are LaCrosse Ice Kings and I'm not looking forward to tromping a half mile through the snow with them on though

I have ran into the same thing with mine. It's not consistent with any certain card or location. Just like someone cam & erased the pics. Sometime it shows a few hundred pics but the card is unreadable when I pop it in the computer.

Another busy week is upon us all as we get closer to Christmas. I'm sure all the kids will be bouncing off the walls waiting for the big day so they can open all those gifts. This thread has taken on a life of it's own, and special thanks to Dave for making us all a part of the Chickenbuck Nation. Merry Christmas to all the Chickenbuckers, and the honorary Chickenbuckers too.
Here's to the hope that we all have a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2014.
Best wishes and prayers sent for all our friends here on the Fire.
Sincerely,
Gophergunner Gopher, +1 to all of the above ! Merry Christmas to all Chickenbuckers & prayers for a safe, Happy & prosperous New year.
Paul.

It was 18* Above here this morning but has been dropping all day. Been snowing all day too, although we've probably only had a little over an inch.
WB, if you're looking for snow to try out your new toy come down my way.
Spent about an hour with the snow blower this morning moving snow around so we had more room to pile it.

Merry Christmas everyone. I am working 11a-11p tomorrow and Christmas, but I can't complain. I have Christmas morning with the little-guy before I head in.
I hope everyone has some great family time over the holidays.
