I used to work for a telephone company and mine was an outside job. I can't tell you guys how nice it is to be retired. I don't even fish much in this type of weather.  :o :D
It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.

Oh yeah I'll be out before the cock crows with my crappy Big Buddy heater.  This is its last chance to perform or else its going back and I'm getting a sunflower type heater.  Its actually quite nice in the Polar Escape when its all sealed up with the heater on....its just the bit getting from the truck to the hole....that and trying to avoid all the deer on Sheridan Rd.

Just a wake up call for all 7 of you ND members that frequent the NY Board...we have ICE and will be in the Tourney by the 20th.
At least when we go out for Breakfast...we are not huddled around a vending machine on RT.90 8)

If by "vending machine" you mean "propane cooker with frying pan and deer sausage from a deer we shot on our own land without having to fly from the east coast and pay a rancher $5,000 to shoot a buck that's been drugged up, tied to a stake in his holding pen" then you are correct, city slicker.

Thanks, I'll be here all winter.  Tip your waitresses.

ND's got the deer, SD's got the pheasants, MN's got 10,000 lakes. 
Tell me those East-Coasters don't envy us in the northland.  :)
