Seen on news yesterday morning the weatherman calling for a more then average amount of snow this winter. I believe he called it "La Nina"? where the waters off the coast of south america are cooler then normal and create this affect. He said from Madison Wi north colder temps and the southern states warmer but the mid west will get more snow. He said this has been the case 8 out of 10 La Nina's.

Looks like your magic red pen turned those acorns into stuffed olives! Hey, where's the vermouth?? Frank.

I'll tell you that "draw option" on this computer is handy, for counting, and pointing out stuff. I had to search vermouth. I'd heard of it before, I don't have need for it. I don't like olives either. Frank, what's your winter forecast? (and when are you going to check your trail cam? Darned thing has been out 2 or 3 months and you've not shared a single picture.)

Beyond 5 days I don't have much faith in the forecast prediction. If I'm not mistaken, I think the Old Farmer's Almanac makes their prediction 2 years in advance, using "sun spots." Darned if I know?, but they have a pretty good record. The old time folks had a saying or theory for everything.
Thinking about your sausage, a man offered to sell me a 450# pig a few weeks ago, for cheap! Just too hot, and I didn't have time to mess with butchering. Or the freezer space. You've seen the pictures of our acorn crop. This was years and years ago, but I knew a man that raised a few pigs, and one year that we had a good acorn crop, he just opened the gate and cut them in the wind. I remember hunting down off of the mountain, and seeing his hogs a half mile from his house.
