    Black Fly Season

    Exactly! Now that's what I'm takin' 'bout! That one of the biggest reasons I like winter over summer, well maybe not the biggest, but one of the reasons. There are many other reasons I like winter as well......let's see there's skiing, winter hiking, snowshoeing, skating......just to name a few...

    Yeah, they didn't seem to be biting, yet.......just wait though. I think I hate the black flies worse than the mosquitoes.

    Baxter SP

    I just called up there to see if I could get any more info....all we care about(well not all), but anyway, we just want to be able to use our x-country skis to get in. They said there was probably just barely enough for that and there would most likely be some icy spots as well. I'm kinda...

    I should've asked you before. Do you have a phone number we can call to find the conditions on our route? That would be great if you do.

    Exercise

    Yes, pretty much all of the above....as well as trying to get rid of some fat around the mid section. I think I probably was over doing the sit ups or something like that, I also have an old injury that reoccurs occasionally...from leaning over and pulling up on a window....improper form. It...

    Exercise

    Sounds like quite a few people have a pretty set regimen going. I'm really bad at that....I usually do 20-30 on the elliptical machine, then into either streching or work on the Total Gym 1700 that we just recently purchased, which I absolutly love. Now I just need to figure out some kind of...

    Exercise

    I hear ya....I'm going to be hitting the big 5oh this year! :eek: I've been doing cardio at home(eliptical machine-20-30min) 2 or 3 times a week, some strength training, and of course lots of streching. Seems like it's still not enough though. They say it takes just as long to take it off as it...

    Falling thru a frozen lake

    WOW! :eek: Unbelievable! :eek: I can't imagine doing that kind of demonstration. Very informative. I hope I never have to use this technique, but I'm glad for this information. My worry would be not being able to get the skis off. I have a hard enough time getting them off above water, never...
