I am out plowing the neighbors lanes this morning. It's 0 degrees Fahrenheit but nice and toasty in the John Deere
.
Winds are supposed to kick up later. Will have to 4 wheel drive it to my gun match tonight!

Stan,
I love the snow, but it hasn't done nothing but rain here 7.46 inches so far, over the last 15 days. May have to sale the trailer and buy a pontoon boat to get my helicopter out! LOL!!! I'm sick of winter and rain. Good luck tonight hope everyone makes it safe.

You guys can have that white shit... We had all I want to see last year.

The snow is not that bad, and it does help my business...
However...
These idiots in my area have NO IDEA how to drive in it... And as such make it a nightmare to live with.
Oh the $$$ I can make when my competition cannot get out (heavy vans)... however I have to negotiate the other drivers (and stalled cars) clogging the roads...

Freakin idiots do not know when to just stay home.

Everyone is an idiot under our conditions. As long as it it is snow most drivers can get by. But where we live you know as well as I do our snow melts during the day and refreezes as ice during the night. Most everyone is an idiot when they have to drive on ice no matter where they live.
Case in point is even a snowmobile is at home on snow.
It ain't worth diddly on sheet ice. One would not make it up or down the hills in the Atlanta area.

Yeah... ice is not fun to drive on... wish we did not get ice.

IMO the problem in my area... folks 'should' just stay home... but they do not.

OTOH... who am I to say. I just want the roads clear so I can run calls and make some extra $$$.
