If this is any indication...




....of how this winter is gonna be then it might be time to get some heat tape on the pipes at the beach. Woke up to this shocker in Belhaven this morning. Very unusual for early Nov. I think our Belhaven house is about as far South as Salvo. Our place in Carova is usually a little colder, although I did not see any snow there this morning on our security cams.

Wow, BF! Very odd, indeed. Had some snow yesterday at my home in VA on the mtn, but nothing stuck like what you have there now. 24 degrees up here now and wind is howling.

My son and fishing club friends heading down to HI this afternoon just in the nick, I think. He'll handle the situation if something needs to be done at the cottage in Frisco.

You probably don't have to worry yet but I got a feeling this winter is gonna be a banger.


RE: If this is any indication...




Check your pet and livestock water bowls, they're probably frozen this morning.

Headed down to check the RV and Boat. Its always a good sign when I can see the mast through the trees where its supposed to be.

Thanks Bent! We had all the underbrush and vines hogged out over the summer by a local guy with a big machine that could handle it. Now we can see all the way down to the ICW. You couldn't see past 10 feet before. It was just crazy vines and tangled masses of Pocosin-esque woods.

This is enough for me! I'm spending the month of February in Tampa, looking for a second residence. I might start spending the winters down there, maybe after Christmas until early April. And to think I used to spend thirty or more days a year sitting on chair lifts freezing my tuchas off!

Then you can be "Florida Man" and get away with all kinds of stuff! ...you might have to dust off that golden LP and start gigging again!


RE: If this is any indication...




One thing for sure, the weather always changes. It's either hot and sweat is getting in my eyes or it's damp and muddy or it's raining leaves all over the yard or it's cold and I'm licking the snot off my upper lip. Big grin

Each season has its pros & cons.

Just wait...in (I'm guessing you are 40ish?) about 20 years it just drips freely outta your nose smiley .....


RE: If this is any indication...




That's a pretty ICW spot BF. Hope this cold snap doesn't last long. Stay warm for now.
