Supposedly (hopefully) "rain" and cool temps in a week, but they've been saying that for a month ?? Sounds like maybe you're gonna be gettin some of that high pressure system that's gettin pushed outa here ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking like an unseasonably warm weekend coming up, talking 70's which is unreal for Minnesota mid-to-late October. Only upper 30's, maybe 40 for a high today. 50's forecasted for midweek....

Chad G. Posted November 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Rain finally, maybe a freeze next week, I'll take some new pix tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 November the second and I was wearing shorts today--73 degrees. I harvested my Chard today---maybe too early, the carrots and radishes are still going strong. Should I start some seeds? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted November 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 I just watched the weather for the coming week, this channel is about the most accurate weather. Fri. night to Sunday morn over 3 inches of train followed by a hard freeze Tuesday night. Straight from Fall to Winter in a week, looks like a sad wild mushroom season this year, not going to be doing any Steelhead fishing either till it warms a little. Two weeks ago it was in the mid to upper 80's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted November 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 "Good Morning" More pix after the hard rain and freeze, some trees are changing and some dropping leaves. For the most part still looks like August. Oh, and the first business they're putting in ? Another "Taco bell" I guess the Olive garden and Sonic will be next summer ??

Chad G. Posted November 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 Winter is really setting in early & quick this year. Gonna go out and get some ealy color change action this week, I'll try and remember the exact same trees so a reference point can be made. As the chlorophyll begins to wane in the leaves the colors will blast off. Cold and dry after today LINK :: https://www.si.edu/stories/why-do-leaves-change-color-fall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to plant garlic from what I understand you can plant it anytime. I never had to plant it. The "clumps" I had growing around my garden had been there for years, I never did harvest all of it (to much) so it seeded itself. Many of the "cloves" had regressed into singles like an onion and lost allot of their "pep" in the process. I learned to like the more mellow flavor they produced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted November 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Dry, dry, dry, dry, dry, usually we're in Elk camp hunting soaked every day all day this time of year, Hmm ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good thing we don't have any moisture in the air I guess, it'd be snow for sure, which I really don't mind unless it gets ridiculous & unnavigable. I'll try and get out and get some pix tomorrow, note the word "try" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted November 17, 2022 Report Share Posted November 17, 2022 Well it snowed again today and the Buck was there yesterday morning. This is a nice Whitetail “Scrape” about 35 yards behind my house. It does stink—oh boy. Gun season starts this weekend—I hope that I see him. I stopped hunting but my blood still boils when I see this stuff. Mmmmm Venison roast. We have had a three legged doe around for about seven years. Twins every year and triplets last year—she got hit by a car again and died in the neighbors back yard—the end of an era----RIP Three leg! I took my granddaughter out to look at the scrape last night under a flash light. 7 years old and full of what was going on with it. I was almost embarrassed. The apples do not fall far from the much older trees—LOL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted December 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 Sorry for the huge lapse in pix. I've had C-19 plus a bunch of Dr. stuff, now it's froze hard + snowed and there is going to be an appreciable difference in the pix between "then & now" I meant to get all the subtle differences in but @ this point; not gonna happen. I'll try and remember to get a few in tomorrow of the leafless trees !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the twelve pack mixed----plenty of hot sauce---yummmm! As teens we used to go to Taco bell for a phart contest later in the day. Talk about now, then and later---I still win🦨. even with my wife🍉. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted December 9, 2022 Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 Our first real measurable snowfall, at least IMO...began around 3am and supposed to clear out around lunchtime or so. Might get a glazing of ice on top of it afterwards, but I hope not because this snow is the wet, heavy variety. Looking like we'll get between 4-6 inches. I'll get too test my breathing and stamina shoveling today! I can already hear it sliding off my steel roof, sounds like rumbling thunder hitting the ground...and that always means that I'll have a pile too shovel off the eastern side of the house on my sidewalk.. 20221209_074259.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
