Stuff I’ve done, figured out, yearned for, or complained about.

I’m finally starting to feel this summer a little!

Finally. Yes, finally. After the last few months of sitting here whining about not getting out for some fun time, I’m finally getting around to making a summer out of this nasty summer. The weather is a bit nicer now. Not quite as hot and humid. I was making plans to go out tomorrow for… Read More »

Keeping busy!

Yup. That’s me. Keeping busy. I haven’t got much into the exploring thing this year. I toured around the marsh a little bit, but for the most part that’s about all I’ve done. I was planning to go out today because the weather is relatively cooperative, but I decided that it was a better day… Read More »

Gloomy August

The weather this summer simply refuses to cooperate!  Last month it was so hot I could barely stand being outside, and this month so far has been disgustingly humid, stormy, wet, and miserable. The sun pops out to brighten our days for a few minutes sometimes, but mostly it’s just gloomy.  Environment Canada keeps predicting… Read More »

Everything is so annoying to me right now

I finally got myself motivated and energized and bored enough to get out of the office chair for a while. It was hell, and I am back in the office chair where I belong! This has certainly been a much less flooded spring for us. The happy fun pit I am so anxious to get… Read More »

Spring Melt!

Oh yay, the big spring snow melt and runoff is finally happening. It’s a few weeks later this year… Last year at this time we were still pretty badly flooded. 2018 is bringing with it a much milder runoff. The water levels are rising, but all the snow is mostly gone already and there’s no… Read More »

This year’s shopping list!

Yay! The sun is shining and we’re hitting double-digit daytime temperatures! This has me itching to get outside and start wearing down this nasty beer gut that seems to thrive during the lazy winter months… No worries about flooding this year! The water should be just high enough to make great muddy banks, but low… Read More »

Welcome to 2018!

Happy new year! OK So it’s March. Give me a break! 🙂 This winter wasn’t so bad. We have had some really cold spells, but for the most part it’s been a pretty mild winter. There’s almost no snow on the ground. Everything is frozen, nonetheless. I don’t really have any exciting news… I realize… Read More »

Decisions, Decisions!

For sure, I can’t decide which mud hole I want to visit next. Of all the decisions I’ve had to make lately, this is by far the best one! hah! I went back, again, to the wonderful swampy creek area. I found a number of good spots.  Two spots I didn’t get to explore in… Read More »

Shopping Spree!

Yeah. It’s a bit late in the season to start shopping for this kinda stuff, but I’m only expecting a few more weeks of nice weather this year, so I want to make them count. First off, with nearly getting caught still clanging around in my brain, and my outright refusal to let that stop… Read More »

Wish me luck.

Well it’s another week here in Mudbog town. I have decided that the mud in this area is too good to pass up. I may try to visit some other areas this year, but for now I’m sticking with what works. There is still an increased chance of getting found out, but at the same… Read More »
