DC is supposed to get only 8-12 inches. It's sticking to the trees now,
so
tomorrow should be pretty. Fixed a big pot of stew, got the fire going,
good to go all day tomorrow with the Olympics.

I have a JD tractor with a loader bucket, but it's a pain to clear the
driveway because you can't plow the snow to one side. You have to plow a
big pile of snow, then stop and pick it up with the loader and dump it off
to the side. I ordered a plow attachment, but it won't be in until the
middle of next week - too late for this storm. My driveway is long ....
comes in from the road, divides to go both ways around the horse barn and
up to the house. Total of about 1600-1800 feet by 15-20 feet wide I would
guess, maybe more. That's a lot of snow to move if there is close to 2
feet of it.

Pansy. Real men would shovel that little bit by hand. ;-)



Tom will do it with one hand!

Heh. I'd rather watch it melt.

We used to get it plowed but I told Mrs.E that I could handle it (justified
the new plow toy, you know) ,so she cancelled the plowing service

I just waited too long to order it.

How about another tractor dedicated to the snowblower?

15 inches of snow predicated here tonight through Sunday morning with
blizzard conditions.
Mrs. E. leaving for Norfolk this morning. I am staying to ride out the
storm, plow the driveway, then drive to Norfolk myself next week to
deliver a Harley Fatboy.

I am watching the last of the fog burn off, to be a 70 degree day. Going
to pressure wash the back wall, so I can paint it before the Trex for the
deck is delivered Tuesday.


Thanks a lot.

Weather guessers now say more like 18+" on the southeast coast between
Boston and the Upper Cape.
Wonderful.

Worked in the yard, after buying paint for the house. Still trying to get
around to clean the inside of the boat. On the trailer in front of the
house. Have to vacuum up the worm dirt that got dropped last weekend.

Aspirins don't work for fishing fever. I think the only known cure is
to go fishing. James


The prescription warm sun and hot fishing. The La coast is good. Florida
is too crowded.

We have snow outside and boat is weatherized ... no boating til april for
me ... I am from New jersey and too cold right now ... I have too much to
do around house!! and college work to do too ... com' on spring I need to
