Hear on the coast in Plymouth we are usually seeing rain, but it appears the cross hairs are on us for this one. And of course I had used the break to rake and get 90% of my spring cleanup done, hope its just some stick pick up this time around. Last time around between two trees in my yard and two from neighbors coming into my yard, I had enough fun time.

My mom gets in to TFG from a week in Aruba late tonight - expecting to drive back to Cape - looks like I am picking her up instead and shoveling her car out tomorrow.

If they'd only ban storms... nobody needs 2 feet of snow.

We lost power for a few minutes and based on the wet sticky snow we are getting by the coast in Plymouth, I might have to break out the ellipse hot spot soon if the router goes down. Can't even see out the windows with all the snow plastered on them.

Power back, but my back is junk, even the snow blower would move 1-1/2" of slush, covered in 2-3" of wet packed snow. Glad I shoveled before the freeze, I'd have needed an ice axe to find the car and truck.

I'm sitting here, 350 miles south of the Arctic Circle, laughing my ass off because, it rained on Tuesday.

Ughhh !!
What really blows about snow for me. I hand shovel out 2 elderly neighbors driveways after my own each time it snows. No spot for a snowblower to throw it. Usually get plowed in a few times to boot. Each storm is a lost days pay and 8-10 hours of tempting cardiac arrest. Can’t find any fat kids to get out of the basement video game parlor to make a few bucks.
Different world now, as a kid there’d be an army of us out there every snow storm.

I'm in Kingston MA and the pine tree situation here is unreal. I've never seen such widespread carnage. 40 footers dropping everywhere. Even though I enjoy having a permanent scent of chain/bar oil and pine another wind and wet snow event would suck here. Opening day 2 weeks away!

I don't know about happiest myself, but the Finnish sure make sweet rifles, their machining is top notch and accurate as hell.


This last storm put a dangerous 65 foot maple leaning on my shed with no way to cut it down to the ground safely. I emptied the shed mostly and will wait for a professional.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
