No excuse for it Ross... it really only takes a minimal effort to keep it safe... people just think it will never happen to them... I have a neighbor that has at least 6' of snow between the Garage roof and the side of their second story... no effort has been made to move it.. I feel it is a matter of time before it ends in a big bang.. and he USED to be the town manager...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
