Hunting with Mike

Friday the 28th of March will go down as “A day of Infamy!”  Well maybe it’s not quite that “historic,” but it defiantly will go down as a “bummer!” This picture was taken out my dinning room window into my backyard on the 8th. day of Spring 2008.  Unless your “Nanook of the North,” this is not what you want, or expect, this time of year.   My mother, bless her Canadian heritage, loves this “white” stuff, but if it’s not a November or December tracking snow, I don’t have to have it.  My turkey permit is just three weeks away, and I sure don’t plan on tracking one “in the snow!”  I’m tired of blogging about these late season snow accumulations.  Every time we get one I proclaim it to be the “last!”  No proclamations this time, as I don’t want to be wrong again!

I just received an e-mail from one of my Canadian cousins from Calgary Canada, and even they “don’t” have any snow!  Something is wrong with this picture.  Not that it isn’t “pretty,” but tulips, trees budding, and robins chirping are also “pretty!”  Speaking of robins, I heard they are taking up a petition to become the Georgia State bird, and they want the “snowy owl” to take their place here in Michigan!  I think the robins are having a hard time finding any worms beneath the snow cover around here, and my wife can’t find her tulips either!
