-26 here in LaBarge this morning...don't worry about Deer Hunting this year in Western Wyoming...they started dropping like flies 2 days ago around here....got 9 inches of new snow at my place from last storm...looks like Antarctica between LaBarge and Big Piney...can't even see any sage-brush....
It’s been a whiteout here for 2 days. The highway has been closed for most of that time and there are trucks and cars stuck everywhere. The Utards closed it at the state line twice, a first as far as I can remember.
I can‘t see how the critters can make it thru this stuff.
Our "Immigrant" song is a bit different than Led 's sound...ours starts with an accordion solo followed by mariachis.More snow here again last night. The roads feel like cobblestone. The first line of the Led Zep Immigrant song comes to mind- " We come from the land of the ice and snow". The first time the weather man predicts warm weather I'm Not going to believe it.
If they don't play that song at my funeral, I'm not going.More snow here again last night. The roads feel like cobblestone.

Like the guy said, if it snows it's mother nature. If it doesn't snow it's man made.Utah's statewide snowpack breaks record set 40 years ago
This year's snow season is officially alone at the top of Utah's snowpack record books.www.ksl.com
Take pictures ?They were predicting 57 here today so figured I’d run up and go by the cabin. 9,000’ near Fish Lake.
“…..won’t be green up here for a few months……. Pilgrim!”
Zeke, your place is still ice o lated….
Ha, I did Trix…… I’m too lazy to transfer them from the camera to the iPhone…..Take pictures ?
here you go T.Take pictures ?
I know I’m restating the obvious…. but accept for our wildlife, in some areas, this snow/moisture is a welcome chance to the last 10 years or more of drought. Not wishing any harm to property owners from heavy snow loads on their building or pending floods from an abrupt run of but the entire western half of the country needs a few more winters with average or better snow/moisture.Thanks. It’s going to be 2-3 months before I can get into our place. I’m guessing 10 feet of snow and Kane County doesn’t touch the roads till June
5 miles south of Navajo Lake. Down north fork. 8500’Where in Kane County is your place T? Sounds like you’re in one of the higher elevations down that way.
Beautiful place for a cabin T. That country does get its share of snow!
I hope to so too, I’m thinking the ice on the Lake is 30” thick or better right now, W and….. shame on you for renting a place at Bowery when that cabin is setting right there, at your disposal. Looking forward to see you, none the less.That A frame looks cozy, Lumpy....
You guys have a lot of snow I'd say. Hopefully it's gone by June when we hit Bowery Haven.
We're pulling the 5th wheel and I think it'd be a bit tight getting in there. We'll be hitting Moab as well. I'll let you know when we'll be there. We'll spend more time on the water this trip on Fishlake and hopefully we don't get hailed on again. We'd like to take you and Toni to dinner again.I hope to so too, I’m thinking the ice on the Lake is 30” thick or better right now, W and….. shame on you for renting a place at Bowery when that cabin is setting right there, at your disposal.

Looking forward to seeing my and Momma again but…… I think it’s my turn to take you to dinner…… I know a great place you haven’t been too!!!We're pulling the 5th wheel and I think it'd be a bit tight getting in there.

Is the “great place” a secret?Looking forward to seeing my and Momma again but…… I think it’s my turn to take you to dinner…… I know a great place you haven’t been too!!!
Only a secret to Wiszard T, only to Wiszard!Is the “great place” a secret?
Is Bryce Canyon Pines still worth a stop?Now…… let me qualify that a bit. In these off the beaten paths, really good cooks are hard are to keep employed, so anyone one of the restaurants in the Torrey area can be amazing or not, depending on the year and the season. Last year, again, the Rim Rock Steakhouse (not the Pizza Patio) and
Broken Spur Inn & Steakhouse were both very good.
It’s been a while, but the last time I was there ( couple years ago) the pie was still well worth a stop. Truth is, accept for breakfast, my personal preference is the meals at Bryce Canyon Pines over the meals at Ruby’s Inn.Is Bryce Canyon Pines still worth a stop?
Use$ to be one of my favorites but I’ve tried it a handful of times since it changed hands (that’s been years ago) and each time I came out disappointed, if not needing to hit the first station afterwards. It’s never been the same since Mom sold out. Maybe Lumpy will remember but didn’t Mom die shortly after selling it?Mom’s Cafe???
For green salad???Mom’s Cafe???
Yes, so did the gentleman she sold it to, after a few years. The next owner was there and gone in a flash and the current one is struggling, IMO. Never be like the Original Mom’s again. Scrambled eggs and French toast is hard to screw up so the breakfast and dinner salad is still tolerable but the rest of the menu……….. really rough. The cowboys from the sales barn and the truckers still eat there…….. Denny’s is gross and there’s no other choice.Use$ to be one of my favorites but I’ve tried it a handful of times since it changed hands (that’s been years ago) and each time I came out disappointed, if not needing to hit the first station afterwards.

I generally limit it to their biscuits and gravy, served until 11:00 a.m. which I think are the best you can get within a 100 mile radius. Biscuits are always fresh and warm, baked every morning. The gravy is “usually” piping hot, creamy and plenty of sausage. Price is $3.95 for a single $5.95 for a double, I think. Medium Diet Coke is free with a b&g, on Saturday morning.Lumpy, How is the grill in Ace Hardware in Richfield?
Biscuits and gravy? I heard talk of a fella in Utah who is supposed to be a good biscuits and gravy maker.
I met a very famous Utah feller there one time....He cheated me out of buying breakfast.Mom’s Cafe???
He told me you got back at him.I met a very famous Utah feller there one time....He cheated me out of buying breakfast.
When it happens be sure to share. We'll start a go fund account.Now the runoff. I’m gunna put a trail camera by the river so maybe I can catch a pic of my cabin floating by.
That sounds serious. Don't forget to take your computer and MM log in information.25 this morning outside of Reno. I was planning a moving trip up North. Not for another couple weeks, or months. Got most of my junk packed and loaded. Even the boss is gonna have to pull a trailer.
Maybe it will flip like the island of Guam?There's so much snow in California I'm a little worried about all the extra weight. California was at the tipping point as it is.
Cold here Texas 94 tomorrowSummer Must Finally Be Here!
14 FRICKEN Degrees Here This Mornin!
??
And then there's the tornados....
Luckily we are far enough south in Fredericksburg that we don’t have to deal with that very often.And then there's the tornados....
