Late Howdy to all.

Been snowin' since around 7 last night.
Went out with the snowblower and cleared the driveway and all the sidewalks for my neighbors on both sides of the street around 0800 hrs.

Just looked outside..........
Can't tell I was ever out there for two hours clearing snow.
Supposed to keep snowing like this for another couple of hours.
We have ~14" on the ground now.

Look out New England area folks.....it's heading YOUR way.

Remember when you had those pesky hemorrhoids removed with no anesthetic then they sterilized it all with iodine? It was like that. I'll tell you more when we talk, but it went real good. Too much for a PM.

Because the temperature difference between summer and winter up there is only about 10 degrees?

okay, smart mule. hemorroids. sheesh.

ya, will telephone and hear the details, forgot to ask last time we sent smoke signals...

40 below. just can't say that without wondering what body part won't work in that temp.....glad you got the battery NOW AKpaul, instead of HAVE to and found out it was no go. pet your shepard- that's just like having chaiwka up there. but he burps more....

went up to the city for some Christmas spirit. got a carbon 15 bushmaster .22 for a good price ...yes I put it under the tree. but I did get quite the shock out of bullet prices wow. I really hate this manipulation of 2nd Amendment rights thinking....had fresh sushi- it was so good I went back to thank them in Japanese. they gave me more food. life is good and I am fat.

be safe any travellers!

Cold and windy here today...windchills are in the single digits.. and supposedly gonna be near 50 tomorrow, then snow for Tuesday..

Got all my Christmas shopping for the BOSS finished, sure hope she likes the new matching apron/mop set more than she did the cook-pan set I got her last year, she hardly uses them!

Well, yall have a good weekend and B Safe!

Just poppin in to warm up....got all the drive in the trees done....now out to the open strech...that area has to be done so as not to drift the drive shut, so all snow from that area has to be pushed up into the trees and no snow can be higher than the drive on the east side of drive....so will have to come in a couple times before i can get that done....-14 with 15-30 mph.....back out

Or this:
