It seems like

Grand Sumo!!!!!!

 

[ghostice]

Splicing rope and X Ring slings (I figure it's the male version of knitting), cleaning/ washing stuff, adjusting valves on chipper . . . .

Oh and Captain Morgan and I parle some . . . . .

 

[Brando CalPankian]

Study, maintenance, paperwork, training, teaching. Moving firewood to the basement. Relishing the slow time with my family.

It's 68⁰f and sunny here at 39.5⁰ N, so I am outside working in a single long sleeve shirt. It does get down to 40⁰f by morning, so I am having to get things ready with a jacket on.

I look forward to winter shutdown every single year. I spend the time with my family. Reading, writing, planning, splicing. We have an outdoor rink. Planning for next season. Recovering the body. Love the time off.

Indoor "rock" climbing gym.

I’m a big fan of man knitting aka splicing. Thankfully though we have been having really good weather and are still working most every day.

 

[Boomslang]

Yoga, gym, some running, a little reading, a lot of puttering, and constant daydreaming

 

[Treetopflyer]

I like all these answers
I got work but when it’s single digit temps I’ll sit home thanks
well edit to add doing non work activities outside in those temps can be fun
Yesterday took a long walk in the woods very peaceful

 

[flyingmosstreen]

Carving spoons. Axe, sloyd knife and hook knife. And quiet. Oh and Jack London.

 

[bobs yeruncle]

if you like good movies, a criterion channel subscription
if you like bad movies, the 24/7 MST3K twitch stream!

 

[Matias]

The Criterion collection is straight fire!

I definitely enjoy the slow time in the winter. This year I've been ticking away at projects in the house, ice fishing, reading a lot, cross country skiing, taking care of my kids when they are sick- young kids seem to be always sick! Probably should start getting my shit together for tax season but I'll procrastinate for a bit longer before I do that haha.

Most winters it's more mud here than snow. This winter it is ice. A couple of weeks ago we had a big ice storm which caused tree limbs to snap all around you while standing outside and trees to uproot. So even though its single digits, it's time to hustle and work into the dark to make up for the other slow winter months.

Temps aren't really a big deal With a few well thought out layers and getting acclimated to it, unless the wind is blowing hard.

Although this morning the hydro fluid in my truck was so cold that the engine couldn't accelerate after engaging the PTO.

Gender neutral canoe paddle carving!

Work.. been chilly with lows into freezing temps, which we should have had in mid November but that never came.
Any spare time goes to working on putting the house back together. Which is very slow and tedious, but had an awesome helper for about half the day. I think she earned her color pencils she’s been eyeballing.
Figured it would be a good time to go into debt a little, get the materials before tariffs kicked in. Still along way to go.

 

[cory]

Grand sumo, who knew??? That looks interesting, imma watch later.

Been splitting wood, burning alot of wood, gym, reading, biz stuff short of cutting trees, lots of dog walking in the woods- they love a Snifari!

No slow time of year for me, honestly I'd kind of love a month off from tree work, but it would really just be me working on other personal projects that keep getting put off.
