Hardly even any snow on the roadway

I wish we could take this to our farm in Missouri, its so overbuilt it could stand up to a tornado (we were a little overzealous when we built it). I think we will take the King Crab pots just for conversation pieces.

Not as many crowds in the winter...if I can see more than two boats on the water its a crowd.
