Someone needs to turn the heat up in Illinois... did we forget to pay the gas bill or something?

How is it out in Montana?

Speaking of rain, is there someplace in the chapter where there's a map of places you can mud?

New to the chapter, so pardon my ignorance

Check for mud bogs or there's always the Cliffs Insane Terrain (IL) or the Badlands (IN) OHV parks.

Yeah, I'm not sure if I'm ready for the snow to come. They're predicting up to 10" in my neck of the woods. Not sure if it'll be that bad, they always seem to pump up the numbers and then we only get an inch of snow.
