Keep warm Buddie........BOB! Hey Bob! It funny I felt the exact same way about my 4 years in AZ! It must be where a guy is raised. I can handle and love the cold. I'm out all winter in it, fishing, hunting, trapping, whatever it is I'm out in the cold and it doesn't faze me! When I lived in AZ I felt like the summer in the valley was exactly like winter in ND. You run from the car to your work our home and stay inside all day for 4 months (or at least I did because I absolutely despise the heat!). Anyhow, I learned to head to the mountains every chance I got, and the winters are incredible! I miss glassing the desert in January with my bow in hand soooo badly when it's cold and windy up here. But I also really love the changing seasons here. The days start to get rediculously long and it does start to warm up (65 last Saturday!). The lack of people makes for a hunter/fishermans dream!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naturebob Report post Posted March 10, 2017 Ya Yote my allmost 5 years up there I never went pheasant hunting, to cold.

Hoss50 Report post Posted March 10, 2017 The 1 winter I spent in minot was enough for me. Really nice people but to heck with that kind of cold. And it was a "mild" winter they said. Standing on the roof of Walmart for 4.5 days setting air conditioners with a ancient stick crane sucked at -30*. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted March 10, 2017 I spent two years in Norway and got as much of the chilly environment as I wanted.....but I gotta admit 2016 population of 757,952 That is pretty tempting!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted March 10, 2017 Living in ID was awesome. The cold rarely kept us inside, just bundle up and head out. I loved the atmosphere and all the hunting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flatlander Report post Posted March 11, 2017 I am confused. The decoys look like sandhill cranes but the dead birds look like canadiens. Am I just seeing them wrong? Are they all flying ribeyes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
