    Still can't start that dang snowblower. It's getting old! Last time my brother came over and pulled the rope twice and it fired. I don't get it. All I know is I followed the instructions on the machine and I smell gas so it's probably flooded now.

    Getting a small dinner, then going back out to play for a couple more hours before the snow moves in. Then the cold will follow. Going to need more wood moved closer to house and my neighbors too. Love this time of the year.

    You ever been in that little knife shop and kitchen supply next to the train depot in North Conway? They have a great selection of knives of all types there. I go up to bike week and always end up there and buy something.

    Worked the Holiday today. Made some of the extra bean dip to off set Christmas spending. I have to bring more wood in tonight! Jeesh, going to be ready for bed by 9. Wait. I have the next four days off. Might have to have a beer. And maybe one of those Grey Goose mixed drinks I told you guys about. :drool:

    I like all of that except the temps.. but you're talking Celcius? (that's still -10F!) Keep the stoves fed!!

    17F here (-8C) and 6-12 inches starting tomorrow, with some high winds, which means big drifting. The Sour Dough French Toast has me hungry!!

    I ride my motorcycle up in the White Mountains and there is this truck stop where 91 cross 302 just south of St Johnsbury Vermont. They make homeade bread there and their French Toast is to die for. Menus are in French and English. :)

    I know the train depot but not the kitchen supply. Will have to check that out. I have taken the 5 hour train ride (great escape if you have not done it) a few times, but I dont stop in N Conway much...too many tourists for me during the summer.

    2 degrees out so I convinced my wife to go with me for a walk with the dogs. When we got back she had icicles on her eyelashes!

    The fire feels especially good now!
