Here's our "Winter Wonderland"... That is me in the black truck on the left in the wheat field. The guy in the white rig came up from behind me and tried to pass.. As soon as he pulled out he lost control and hit me sending me spinning into the other lane and into a field. He rolled twice. Terrible roads this winter. If I'm not coping with icy roads I'm dodging deer. (Hit three so far this year..) Come on Spring!!:yike: geeze was everyone okay? Aside from his bruised ego.

That picture is awesome. The quail are in full flight and it looks like the chubby huns are having a hard time getting off the ground :chuckle:
There was a rooster mixed in with the group too......he was WAY too slow to join the pic.
