A Little Snow On
« on: December 01, 2008, 04:41:09 AM »
We have a little snow on the ground in the Springfield area with temps still under 30 at 9:30...I recon that it would be a good day for a Coyote hunt but this is not to be as I have to work.
I will be on bereavement leave Tue through Thur due to the death of my 87yr old Mother. It is a great loss for sure but yet a blessing also because of her health over the last two years and the last two months in particular. She had great values with the Church always being her foundation and is now in a far better place with no pain!

Sorry for your loss glanceblam.

It's still snowing a little up here. Not bad though, little on the ground.

I was coming home from Wisconsin yesaterday and hit some pretty heavy snow around the border but we haven't gotten anything like that here.

glanceblamm, sorry for your loss.  My mom passed away a little over two years ago and as much as I miss her I know she is no longer in the pain that she had suffered.

Just east of Peoria we have about 5 to 6 inches of snow on the gound and about 2 to 4 inches in Bloomington area.  They are saying another 1 to 2 inches tomorrow afternoon.  It is supposed to get to 38° today.  We are headed back out Thursday morning, if there is snow it will make tracking easier and also dragging the deer out on the sled.  That assumes we get one  ;D
