Out with the wife and kids, and found a place that sells construction vehicles for Cougar and Oliver. Seems as though this would be a fun toy to cruise around in. Just keep them away from crazy people in Colorado.

Sorry, no coffee, no tea, no buscuits, no fritters, no dragon, no sloppy sink, no countertop filled with goodies..... all because no one comes here, and it all goes to waste.

In the meanwhile.... pretty photos of crazy machines.

Yesterday's snow skiff up in NW NJ. Nice crapo day for a ride through the countryside. Nothing but rain where I live

 

5 days of 14 hour shifts, a day off then 6 more days of 14 hour shifts. Then back to normal. I'm burnt out! This is going to happen once a month until May, then another guy leaves. Then it becomes permanent.
Been cold and windy. The cold killed the batteries on my 2nd gen. I'll have to replace them. It has warmed up and we are supposed to get snow starting today through Friday. They are saying we will stay in the upper 20°s for the next 10 days with on and off snow showers.
The weather took the power out just in time for the super bowl. There where a lot of grouchy people at work.
NJ, that would make a great back country camper. We have a few like that around here.

 

Been snowing up here for the past day. They are calling for an additional 10-24 inches of snow today up here.
Looks like I should plow the 8-9 inches of snow in the driveway now. Plowing 20 - 30 inches of snow at one time might be asking a lot of the old W350.

 

Rain here for days.

Tornado watch today. Windy, but no damage.

Missing snow and winter.

my cowl or windshield must be leaking

later

 

We got about 18 inches of snow here the past two days. I did some plowing yesterday until I got a flat on one of the rear dually tires. The 20 year old rubbers on the old '91 yard plow don't like the chains on their sidewalls.
High of 10F and windy here today, so I will dig out a spare tire and swap that out tomorrow when it warms up a bit.

 

After a nice brisk -22F night the sun is out and trying to warm things up.
Going out on a limb here and leaving some coffee and apple fritters on the counter.

 

thanks Ollie.

Fritters good!

A very stressful last few days. A power struggle at work that I put myself in the middle of. I'm going back to bed.

 

Snowing. 1st gen is broken, 2nd gen is broken, Subaru is broken, printer is broken, and now the fridge. I must have done something really bad.

 

Single digits and clear. Refrigerator shopping today. Printer should show up in the mail today. New battery for the Subaru.

 

Sorry to hear about the string of broken stuff going on up in AK..

High of 8F and sunny here in VT. We got another 5 inches of snow last night, which is not enough to get the plow guy [me] in the old 1st gen.

 

Pretty quiet in here.
A few more inches of snow and some wind gusts today. Calling some a couple more inches of snow tomorrow.
Might finally make for enough snow in total to fire up the plow truck.

The sun that peaks through the clouds is starting too feel warm now that it is a little higher in the sky than a couple of months ago.

 

30° and still snowing. Monday it was clear and below zero. Tuesday I woke up to snow and it hasn't stopped yet. Got 11" yesterday alone, 3 or more today, even more tomorrow. I hope this doesn't cancel the delivery of my new fridge today.

 

Got the new printer all set up and working. Fairly easy, all automated set up. The hard part was remembering my passwords. It's an HP OfficeJet Pro 9015 all in one. One added perk with it is I can now print from my fart phone. Now to find a safe place for it. I'm thinking of modifying the book shelf along the wall. A slide out tray to set it on for when it's not in use.

 

You have a Fart phone ? Oh my ! Does that go with your Smell-o-vision ? I heard they were producing those too, but only available in Alaska.

Get all the vehicles back in order ?

Any more earthquakes ?

Can you send snow this way ?


This week 50*F and spectacular. Sunny, blue skies. Really enjoying this perfect working weather here in the land of psychos and morons. (I'm a combination of both).

Final bedroom upstairs in progress. Scraping is my middle name.
