roundboy,
Your inlaws are probably in North Country Region....If they autocross I am sure I have met them... Well, to much snow for me....hopefully it will melt next week... Took a long time to dig out.... Close to a foot.... I love snowblowers....I got a kubota with a five foot snowblower on it.....fires it about twenty feet no problem....Still sucks and still takes a few hours to do it all... Rich |

We had blizzard conditions most of yesterday and last night, gusts of 55mph. Our Great Pyranees didn't want to go out in it. Was 20 degrees when we lost power about 3am. It came back about 9. Then I got to suit up and blow snow for three hours. Why did I think I wanted winter when I retired? And it's snowing again, total should be about 18". Spring is in three short (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) months.

I guess I'm pretty lucky here. So far this year there have only been light flurries. Nothing sticking on the ground. The salt trucks have not yet spewed their evil venom on the roads. I might actually get another drive in.

We have at least 15" in Bolton. I woke up yesterday to 10" on the driveway dropped overnight. The little tractor doesn't like to push that much snow. Even after 3 1/2 hours I didn't finish plowing, before guests started arriving. At least I made enough room for 10 or 12 cars to park. I'm on my way out in a few minutes to finish the job. Maybe 1 to 1 1/2 hours more work.

Well, I can't comment on the weekend temps except that it was bloody cold. As for snow, I figure I shoveled about two feet. Friday I had a grassy yard. Sunday afternood, I had snowbanks taller than my Golf. WTF? All I can think of is that this is only the first of many storms.

I just got back in from shoveling an inch of snow. Supposed to be 4-8" before morning. Yesterday is was almost 70...
Typical Denver winter weather. |

It's warm enough (40s F) that I pulled out the 914 and squareback and took both for a drive this afternoon. I'm going to work on brakes tomorrow on the squareback (going onto new master cylinder #3) and taking off the bus header for a factory 411 muffler combo, but not before I get a new o2 sensor bung welded on. Curiousity is getting the best of me to see what this NOS muffler will sound like... :-)
