Woke up to some Powder on the ground & church had been called off due to bad road conditions so the boy's & me hit the hills for a short hike & some tracking practice. Coyote & Deer & Squirrel. It was Crisp & Cold but we had Fun !

Thanks for the ride. I love tramping around Eastern KY after a new snow. Puts me in the mood to head up to Harlan County and do some exploring on Pine Mountain.

Thomas, it looks and sounds like you and the boys had great time out in your neck of the woods.
To bad no coyote came in.

Looks like a good time. We are bereft of snow here, just rain so it's great to see proper winter weather. No fire or hot chocolate?

So when are you getting the boys some snow camo?

When we got ready to start the hike back out they made me call home & tell the wife to put them some Hot Chocolate on & a PB&J ! The boy's asked me the same question about the "Snow Camo" !
