Michigan, right?  You're always in snow and wind when I'm in 80 deg mid season ;-)

Yes!  Good ol Michigan. From -40 to 40 in 2 days last week.

You never know which version of spring will show up.

Thanks guys.  Didnt hunt the opener, spent the day in Lakeland buying a new side by side since it was the only day i had available before my trip at the end of the month.  Went yesterday to my uncle's place and had one across the street but he didnt like anything i had to say.  When i headed home he was with a mess of hens so that didnt help.

Ive got a lease in Georgia just north of Tallahassee.  When hurricane Michael went through last year, it messed it up pretty bad.  Then with all the flooding they got up there in December it was impossible to get my truck around in the woods.  So out of "necessity" i went and picked up a Camo Can-Am Defender XMR this weekend.  Looked at Polaris (actually bought that first---LONG story) and the can am just seems nicer fit/finish wise.  Plus this model has arched A arms, 30" tires and snorkels - not that those were not a necessity but, with all the water we had last year it cant hurt.
