    Those of us on the East Coast have got a snow coming, time to get the wood in for the shop stove and get everything lined up for a day in the shop. Use your brain shoveling the snow, we ain't as young as we once were, be careful guys!

    Shovel???? I live in Michigan and those of us who value our backs, and getting to work at a respectable time use a snowblower.

    Snowblower! Why when I was a kid my old man made us scoop it up in an old soup can, dump it in a cardboard box to haul away, uphill, 1/2 mile to dump it!

  17. Sounds like it might be more rain than snow on my side of town. I'm hoping that's the case as I've never had to shovel rain!:D;)

    Here in Connecticut The Governor has decreed that all non-essential, non-emergency personnel shall refrain from driving personal vehicles on limited access highways, effective at 0500 (that's 5 am) Tuesday until further notice. So, the roads are more or less closed tomorrow morning at 5:00 am. I pre-planned and have a couple of changes of clothes and roughly three days of food with me at work, plus my sleeping bag. I told them, I would be able to get home, but most likely would not get back in Tuesday. Pity they threw out the old bed that was in the former medical clinic. That gave some semblance of comfort.

    I had my snow blower rebuilt last summer and it hasn't been started since I brought it home. Sorta wish I could use it at least once this winter to see how much better it runs. It's an older ALL STEEL one with NO plastic on it. Should outlast me and the kids can fight over it when I'm gone.

    Another check-in from CT. Have ether and gas for the generator and lots of food. Looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow and having coffee in bed...until I have to go out and clear my driveway...and then the lot in my building...and all 6 trucks. That's gonna suck...
