What is Smorgville?
Well I’m so glad that you asked Luis! It’s always good to ask questions that’s how we learn.
Here a similar thing to Smorgs but Smorgville is different and you kniw once you get there and learn the smorgy dance.
Hey Smorgs!!!
everyone get comfortable and let’s watch this little smorgy clip together.,
M’kay?
 
I will be heading to Georgia at around 4 in the morning to do rabbit hunting so if I'm not on much the next two days that is why. @luis angel I may need recaps during this time. Lol
 
Be patient just let them be and do their thing.
Takes a bit for them to get established.
Don't mess with them.
Nothing will happen overnight.
Should I turn them over if they end up on their backs?

Same thing happened here. No snow when they canceled. But we are getting a few inches, and then in the afternoon we're getting a bunch of freezing rain.
looks to be 5". started at 10:30
