Hope that misses Brampton Ontario. I was just starting to see my driveway again. Going to the fishing show tomorrow with a couple of friends. Get to think spring and summer for a day.

God bless,
Don

I just finished clearing the sidewalk, all 128 feet of it. High winds caused the snow to drift to 3 feet in places, so it took me the better part of 2 hours to clear the sidewalk with a snow shovel.

I fired up the snow blower and tackled most of the driveway before blowing an auger drive belt. Called the snow plow guy and he said we're gonna get another 5 inches this afternoon and evening, so that'll kill tomorrow's double. The past two days of snow cost me $450, not counting another $100 for snow removal tomorrow morning.

Between the job losses, paying through the nose for snow removal, and incredibly high home heating oil and propane costs, this has to be one of the most expensive, longest and coldest winters I can recall in my 73 years on the planet. Next winter, I think I'll give all my winter jobs to Uncle Dave - he loves winter! He said so! wink The only people that I know that love this kind of weather are those that don't have to shovel snow, schools are closed and get paid even if they don't go to work because the road conditions are too bad for driving. Those are the folks that always seem to say "I love the change of seasons." Yeah -Right! The only change I like is when it's 75 degrees outside and the weatherman predicts a high of 80. I'll take that over what is forecasted for here now - 20 degrees will be today's high and we're gonna get at least another 5 inches of snow on top of the 18 we got last night.

Go make a snow man UD and post some photos of it,

Well, bless your heart, as we say in the South. I'm going out to play golf. I will take a light jacket in case it cools off. It's an even 60 degrees right now! smile

DAMMIT, Gary, when the hell are you going to stop trying to tackle these huge snowfalls ??? ... you can't get to the gigs, so stay inside, drink some margaritas, and wait for the plow guy to do the drive way ... you ain't gettin' any younger, and we sure want you to keep gettin' older !!!

BTW ... apparently the snow blower knows when it's time to quit !!! wink

Had to come to Hartford CT for some personal business and of course we are getting hit with the same storm ... pretty much 'room bound' at a Marriott Residence Inn ... wish I had taken the KB with me ... could have gotten in some practice time ... maybe even provide some entertainment in the dining area for tips ... keys singer laugh2

It snowed 15 inches here in Phoenix, MD and it is espected to snow another 4 to 5 inches tonight mixed with sleet. So like Gary, no jobs today or tomorrow. I am lucky that I do have my 20 year old son at home and he is good about clearing the driveway and walkway. And I have my recently newfound hobby of ham radio which is very active during times like this to keep me busy. Has anyone seen spring out there anywhere?
