So now that the cold weather has finally set in, what do you do through the winter months to prepare for next year?

I pillage Ebay for local postcards and other areas where we hunt to get a better idea of how the buildings were situated 50 to 100 years ago.

I also go to the local privately owned museum to findout out more as far as the lay of the land.

Post your winter tools and tips

Merry Christmas to all as well

DJH, When I was up there I hunted all most year round. Hunting in the woods is an option as they usually dont freeze deep due to the leaf cover. I also spent time at the casino when the snow was too deep or it was just too damn cold. I usually wouldnt hunt if it was below 20 or so. BTW got to do some hunting in Louisiana recently and got a wheatie and a silver rosie. Hunted closer to home and only got some clad but it was nice to get out. TMAN...

Which museum are you talking about?
[/quoteThe Elkhart Time Was Museum. Run privately by Paul Thomas on Main Street across from the McD's. If you go you need to call ahead and make sure he is going to be there, as he is a busy man and his hours at the museum are very limited.

Tman,
Gald to see you pop up here. How you doing?
Man it's just to cold to get these bones outside. I'm talking about 20 degree weather here in Michiana Land.

I should rephrase my topic title to post your winter research tips and tools.

Hope everyone has a enjoyable holiday season and hope to see you all soon.
DJH
