    Callin for 1-3 tonight, 3-6 tomorrow and 6-10 on tuesday. My home for the next few days looks like it might be a plow truck o_O.

    We're ready at home though. Picked up 12 bags of greenways today and overloaded the wood bin. Gotta make sure the mrs and baby piney stay warm :fire:

    Just got back from visiting daughter for her birthday and we stopped to fill my wife's car and we were the last to get fuel as they have run out! I have enough to get to Boston and back and was going to fill up on way home.. Hopefully they refill the gas station tonight or during day tomorrow!

    Yeah, I haven't heard of gas stations running out of gas in a long time. No mid grade or premium to get a full tank?

    We barely got any snow last night through today and we were told we'd get 2-3". That may mean it just goes somewhere else.
