A Beautiful Winter Day
« on: December 19, 2008, 04:15:00 PM »
Today, we have the calm before an impending terrible storm, so I snapped a bunch of photos when I had the chance. :) Here you go:













and last but not least, some Icicles:

Great photos! Old man winter sure has arrived with a vengence!

I work on Whidbey Island while my family lives here in Clarkston. I left work last Tuesday instead of this weekend to beat the storms (didn't want to even attempt to drive across the state in it)....boy am I glad I did too!

Some pictures taken at my brother's house on the hill above Castle Rock, sorry about the quality, they were taken with my phone.








By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Don't think you would want to leave that dog outside to long it would freeze.  :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.
