AtLast,
Picked up a mill during a lunar eclipse eh? Hmm, musta got a first rate deal on that one. ;D   :D
The kids and I kept an eye to the sky last night as we were doing chores. I was explaining what was going on by each one of us pretending to be  a planet. We circled and spun til we were dizzy and nearly fell in the snow. :)
Chet, you folks musta been ice fishing already. Haven't tried it yet this year.

Some of the local lakes have frozen over, but they are not safe enough to venture on yet. Da lake we where on was still wide open, at least it was at 10:00 last night when we left.  :)

Whitefish. And no, dey ain't called whitefish 'cause dey is all covered in frost.   ::)   We did get fish, but did not limit out like we did a couple of days earlier. Dem fish last night musta been hidin' cause of da freaky stuff happenin' with da moon.

Hey Chet, where's your sense of adventure?
Strap on a long pair of cross country skis and get out on that ice.  :D
