in THE MAIN WALL
Once in a while, living in the Midwest is not for the lilly livered.  This is one of those times.  I woke up the Metal Monster ( Toro 524 ) this morning, and cleared snow all day until dusk.  Must have moved the equivalent of two dump trucks of it.  One pic is my service van, no going anywhere today.  Also, it's supposed to go down to 5 below tonight, zero tomorrow.

    Aint We Having Fun

    I'm in the Mid-Atlantic and (thank God) this one just missed us. The previous ones got us. Last winter, the snow cost us 4 weeks of lost work, not to mention the small fortune I spent to feed my cattle.



    But I have no complaints. I'm doing just fine. :)

    You can choose to do what you want, but you cannot choose the consequences.

    Here in CT we have 3 - 4 feet of snow on the ground, and then got blasted with freezing rain and ice the other day. We don't expect to see grass until august!

    Feel your pain.

    Here in on the coast of Maine, we have about 4 feet on the ground.  Friday, while on a no heat, I had to dig through 5 feet of snow to find the turret of an U/G LP tank to verify that the customer was out of gas.



    Had a friend, from another P&H company, last week mess up his ankle wading through thigh deep snow to get to a bulkhead door.  He stepped on a concrete block.



    When you ask the customers to have a path shoveled for access, they act like you just asked for their first born.



    Stay thirsty my friends.
