Anyone go up to Big Pond Today?
« on: Jan 14, 2006, 09:52 AM »
Temps suppose to be freezing tonight up there and tomarrow getting down around 9 one night and 12 another.  That should freeze all this rain.  If anyone has been by there please report how the ice is looking.  We dont need freezing during the day just at night to freeze all this stuff.

Yep thought it would be ok also.  If I have to go out on planks, I will just stay home wouldnt feel comfortable doing that.  Guess I will just fill up the tub and practice jigging. :'(
