A little Mid West snow anyone?

[racydave]

At least a foot of blowing snow, 12 degrees actual temp, neg 3 windchill. Im glad Im not in NY state. Will spend the day diggin out the driveway. Odly enough, it is a beautiful site!

Back in September, I purchased a brand new lawn tractor..and at the same time..a snow blade.

Long about January, i started questioning that decision to spend the extra $450 for the blade.

NOT ANYMORE!! I've put quite a few hours on the clock this week, and anticipate more tonight. unfortunately, i was forced to attend the workplace today, and could not stay home playing in the snow like lucky Dave.

Snow? I think I counted 3 flakes this year. What a bummer!

Dark, cramped and cold? No wonder you hate winter!
We've been getting the cold but every time we have a chance of precip, the temps go up. I haven't even pulled the tags off my new snow boots yet.

I'm in central NY. Last year I bought a brand new 8hp 6speed 26" wide snow blower and untill yesterday I used it once. We had apx. 17" of light snow and my new toy barely broke a sweat!

I went running this morning at 6 a.m. in shorts and a T-shirt and was starting to sweat by the time I got home. It chilled off a bit here by noon and was about 68 degrees. We'll probably cool off to 65 tonight.

Okinawa, Japan, rocks in the winter!!!
