If you are into snowmobiling, or love someone who is, find a way to support the James Sizemore Memorial poker run this weekend. Anyone out in the backcountry during the winter season is a potential avalanche victim. Hunters, campers and even fishermen could find themselves in need of the aid provided by search and rescue. In other words, find a way to get behind this good cause!
February is notoriously depressing around here. Lots of snow (as evidenced this week), cold temperatures, slow business, and not much to do. Buck up, little campers. Spring really is just around the corner. Thinking about your garden? Check out sproutrobot online, which offers a calendar for when to plant what (and where, indoors or out) based on zip code. Since 81641 is not scheduled to plant anything (tomatoes) until March 12, you have a few weeks to gather your supplies.
