Sure is. Hoping to be on ponds by Wednesday. I need to stay healthy, my wife's got the flu and I really don't want it. Watch, we finally get good ice and I'll be sick for 2 weeks.

Thanks guys, I'll pass it along. It's not looking good, my head is packing up, I hope its just from splitting wood in the wind today.

Take a lot of zinc ,it will shorten the duration or your cold. Zinc boosts your immune system.i

Zycam is awesome but you have to start it at the very first sign of sickness.

Thanks for the tips. Feel about the same today, hoping an afternoon of laying on the couch watching football will help!! ;D

If you start feeling the slightest bit ill go to the urgent care and get Tamiflu. it will shorten this flu to two days. ~I'm not a doctor but I did stay @ a holiday inn express once.

Lying on the couch is very therapeutic , just don't let the wife start another honey do list . >:(

If the wind would die down we could make some ice. But with the next 3 days being 20 mph or more I'm not sure we will even have ice this weekend

Ive had a few guys call me with some reports and its almost the same everywhere. Its making very little ice if any because of the wind. Its gusting close to 30 at my house right now. Im getting ready to head out to salt a few plazas in Hartville now. Hopefully thats all I have to do and dont have to push any snow. Anymore snow I think will almost kill it.

Just looked at my thermometer and it was dead on zero. Great start to the day!
