Stephenm52 Senior Member Registered: 04/13/05 Posts: 5126 Loc: USA	Originally Posted By tony mads usa And here we go AGAIN ... fourth Nor'Easter in 4 weeks hitting us today ... 5 to 10 inches depending on where you live in the state ... it's really interesting how much different the weather can be 10 miles away ... we are closer to the shore, so we USUALLY get the lower amount in the forecast ... it's also interesting how people in RI react to a snow warning ... you would think it was Armageddon ... our Governor decided to shut down the state today even though the snow isn't expected to start accumulating until about 4PM ... This is NEW ENGLAND, folks ... we should be used to snow and know how to handle it !!! Hey Steve ... don't you wish you were still in Florida ?!? ... Tony, Yes I wish I were still in Florida, next year we won't be coming back as soon as we did this year. What a fiasco with closing state offices! This morning all I see are wet roads and the snow that's on the lawn from a week ago, not this storm.

What gets me upset is that the ACI prison guards got double time and a half pay for the day and other state employees who did work get over time pay..........and while I’m on the soapbox the situation with 9-1-1 funds going into a general fund while some callers to the system had to be put on hold while phoning in their emergencies. They say they are understaffed but misapproiated millions of dollars caused that. Ok off the soapbox.

travlin'easy Senior Member Registered: 12/08/02 Posts: 15576 Loc: Forest Hill, MD USA	We got about a foot of snow, and one of my neighbors cleaned my driveway with his four wheeler fitted with a plow blade. Now I'm waiting for another guy to come out and clear the sidewalk, which is 128 feet long. Sure wish I were in the Florida Keys right now.

And no more kids walking around with shovels looking for $$ to do it like back in the day..iPad or video gaming time vs manual labor...if they want money, they just ask mom and dad, who bought them the tech toys to start with.. _________________________ The older I get, the better I was..

So, do as I do, jump into it and cool down. _________________________ Cheers 🥂 GJ _______________________________________________ "Success is not counted by how high you have climbed but by how many you brought with you."
