Winter bored me most, with the roads to town blocked for months with snowdrifts, and the privies frozen solidly to the ground.
~ Patrick F. McManus in RubberLegs and White Tail-Hairs

[Apparently Pat doesn't think snowy winter days are boring anymore--at least not when he's got some dry powder snow and a snowblower to play with! Photo by Bun, 2012.]
February is not our favorite month. Nevertheless, as Pat say in his book Kerplunk, "We're trying to cure you of February." And nothing cures February like a good laugh, so check out Pat Online this month for some super-sonic toilet humor. I wish I was kidding...
Bun does her part to cure February by transcribing some typical breakfast conversations with Pat in her monthly Bun's Blog. You should probably read this one fast because when Pat sees the way-too-untouched photo and comments, he'll probably make us take it down.
At McManus Store we are running a little Valentine's Day sale, so you can pick up a little something for your outdoorsy sweetie. We only ship by Priority Mail, so you can still easily get your US shipments before the 14th.
Don't let February overrun you; spring is just around the corner. At least that's what I'm hoping our fat, furry local marmots predict.
