    Did day in the 10 -0 F* day and -30 ish for 3 night in a row. But I had a -30 bag and GorTex gloves and Outer wear.

    No way could I have tough out much longer.

    Speaking of wet, it's been raining here the past few days again. If all of this rain is due to global warming, then the world should be in for some very prosperous times. Every time the Earth has gone through a warming period in the history of mankind, mankind has prospered. With more rain comes more plant life which prevents food shortages and keeps man from warring with other men as much.

    However, if it does keep up, my lawn will continue to get smaller and my woodland larger.

    Beautiful trip to my homeland...very emotional, very happy AND sad.....
    I have always loved and been amazed by the Prairies and the Prairie people....and I respect them even more now......homesteading in the early 1800s and living in tents in -50 degF weather is $%^#ing insane.......Nike wouldn't have had a T-shirt with 'no fear' then....it would have read 'severe, gristly and unyielding ba$tards....beware'.....
    I got to run some neat equipment......John Deere makes some serious $hit man.....

    Good for you! Where is da homeland??

    I went to Paxton, Nebraska last summer. We took a county road (that was a single lane cowpath) about 30 miles into the prairie/sandhills.... cattle guards every 5 miles....

    And there in the middle of nowhere is a cemetery from the early 1800's.... someone with a big heart keeps the weeds down.... saw one family in there lost a child every winter for 3 years...

    Sad, but like you say it makes you respect what used to be....
