Your truck needs to be put inside I'm sure it's cold sitting out in that.

At least you were 20 degrees warmer than we were yesterday. I had to go looking for my 30 lb wheeled trash bin Best Way picks up around 6 am every Friday. We were 11 below and continuous 40 to 50 mph winds and gobs of snow, which was probably the single coldest wind chill day I have ever experienced, even growing up in Michigan and skiing a lot of Rocky and Sierra Mountain peakes. I currently live in SW OH, since 1996. I walk 2 houses down, and trash receptical is nowhere to be found, and froze my face walking back against the wind, something I have never experienced in my life. A couple hours later I drive and find it 3/8 of a mile away and another 60 yards out in a farm field. And then I had to pull it to the car against the wind of course which took over 5 minutes in a rutted farm field and froze my face again. The weather folks call this one a Bomb Cyclone and safe to say, I am not a fan. My wife has a bird feeder in our back yard and I will watch them from my semi sunroom office. I could not believe these mostly sparrows were out feeding and was amazed of their endurance against the wind and extreme cold temperatures. However I saw one of them fall over on its back and the wind slide it across my yard on top of the snow. It struggled to right itself, however withen a couple of minutes it froze and died. A couple of hours later when my wife gets up I tell her. She looks with my binoculars and stated this was not a barn sparrow, instead it was our Downey Woodpecker ( their has been a single one feeding for weeks ) and I mourned the loss. I could send it to you Dean, and you could mount it next to the Moose. :eek:

Oh, man, not a woodpecker. I love ours. We have at least three species, including a pair of HUGE red heads. One of them tore great big chunks of bark off of a tree in the front yard. The tree was dying, but the bark was still well attached. I was impressed.

I was Dove hunting in a cut corn field with my dad and two brothers one time when I was about twelve years old. Lot's of Doves and in the excitement one Red Headed Woodpecker. To this day I still feel bad about that and of course I have my brothers to remind me about every once in awhile.
