    By far the worst clean up of any storm this year. 10" and full of water.

    I need a beer or three or I am gonna be sore tomorrow.

    did about 10 inches this morning, and 6 or so heavier stuff a few minutes ago. i felt bad for the Harman and gave it a good cleaning this AM as well. rest of the day was in the shop with the Atlas. coming along nicely. We'll put the heads on this weekend, and then the rest of the external parts can be attached. There's lots of brass stuff that i'll leave off till after painting. give it some bling:thumbs::thumbs:

    Just came in about 20 minutes ago.....3 1/2 hrs of using the snow blower & shovel. The biggest drift was on top of my Trailblazer (looked just like a big white shark fin...LOL).....wind blew it off the roof of the shed. Had to be 5' high.
    I'm wiped out. Took a big swig of moonshine.....:sleeping:

    Same here except we got about 7 inches before it turned to rain. The snow was wet before and only got heavier. 3 hours to do my driveway and walks. The hard part were all the sticks that blew down from the trees.

    I think I'm gonna grill some steaks!

    Seems to have stopped here too, but not sure because the wind is blowing so hard that it looks like it is snowing. hope I don't jinx myself, we still have power, but many others are not so fortunate. Not able to go out today, so I spent a lot of time taking down my old sleep number bed and setting up the new sleep number bed. I save some of the older bed parts for the travel trailer. If I ever use it again, it would make a good mattress to sleep on.

    Power's still out. Unitil said that a pole holding a transmission line feeding a sub station blew down. Might be a while.

    Never mind. Power just came on!

    Well, I'm back....sort of. No internet at home right now.

    Got hammered (by snow and wind, not :drunk:..;)) yesterday. We worked till noon and if we stayed any longer it would have been real bad. I got home at 1PM and all hel l broke loose with wind and heavy snow. Before this it was just snowing since maybe 7am but not that bad.

    Didnt lose power but lost cable, internet and land line phone around 4:30pm, still not back on. At least I had power and my DVR had plenty of saved stuff to watch. My honey lost power in Kittery at 4:30 as well-it still wasnt back on as of 7:30 this morning :mad:

    2 Hour cleanup at 5PM last night during the height of the wind and heavy snow-that was fun. Another 2 hour cleanup at 5AM this morning and maybe another hour after work today. :confused:

    But one last time-At least I had power :)

    I did that last night-figured better to get the 14-18 inches out of the way then and make it easier in the am. Glad I did-the driveway wasnt bad this morning, it was everything else that I didnt do last night that was a royal beatch

    Hey Larry, I was watching the same thing at home yesterday. Its amazing that some of these birds can handle the wind that was blowing.
