Steve VWBelieve me I am envious of warm locations right about now. 7 degrees this morning, 5 inches of new snow. Mother Nature is on a tear this year.
Next year I will get the coach out sooner and leave it south if we decide to come back. It is ready and waiting now!

Steve VWI went out to blow snow… 6 degrees but no wind not too bad. Then a funny thing happened. It wasn't dark and there was a really bright spot in the sky…
It almost looks pleasant out there. Don't let this fool you it is still 10 degrees and we have another system coming in this evening from the west.
I lost track at about 48 inches a few days ago. It has settled a lot since the ground is still warm. First sun since about Dec 6, that will help too. Average high temps are about 30 normally.

Steve VWOh crap…
Well, we got our 2 hours of sun and it is snowing lightly again.

Good luck with the pipes, hopefully they are easy to get to.
Have Barths, will travel sooner next time.

ratrodphilI'm with Steve...I've had it with these winters. Minus 4 degrees here right now. Wind chill -30. Tonight temp -30 and -42 wind chill. Just swept the snow off the Breakaway and ready to get the skid steer out to clear the yard to the road. Hopefully leaving for Arizona by next Wednesday.

ratrodphilDana,
Sunny snowshine, bright sundogs, and 5 hours of clearing snow today! (acreage with a long driveway) I don't think I'd fare too well in a race...AT545 and 190hp 6BTA...

Man, you are such a tease… get me some prices, I swear I'm buying. 105 inches of snow so far this winter, more on the way. (It is snowing now, calling for 3-6 then change to rain to really mess it up.) More snow tomorrow. I have over 15 gallons of gas through the snowblower now.
Can't wait to make my escape.
