    Yes I am female. Thanks for the compliment - I've worked almost 56 years to get this smart (or at least have a modicum of common sense) and worked hard the last 4 years getting fairly handy. I did have a bit of learning by observation prior to this, but I was only allowed to do grunt work or unpleasant jobs but not allowed do anything with power equipment.

    The Toro Max 724 OE I picked up in Jan '17 on a discounted return / clearance sale @ Homey D works excellent here - if it wasn't heavily discounted, the HD-branded Ariens unit that bogieb purchased, was the one I was going to get.

    Only mentioning / recommending it, in case your choices are limited when you go to purchase.. Options are good. :yes:

    I miss 20 F .. That's almost Florida weather here right now badbob . o_O

    Going past Bank of NH in Meredith, right on Lake Winnipesaukee, the digital sign thermo said "-0 F" .. I think that's the temperature that Nitrogen turns from a gas to liquid state. :shiver:

    Good grief, it was cold out today. 7 hours round-trip driving, but worth it - the glass hearth pad is wrapped up warm in a blanket, and being stored in the laundry room. Time to get back assembling on the stove. :yes:

    I am still a big believer in privatizing the postal service.

    Neither did I, wouldn't have paid any attention to it anyway as I have the countdown clock and tee shirt from back in 1997 when we certified a pile of automated systems to be defect free as to date handling. Huge project started in 1995.

    It says it went back to the post office. So looks like Tuesday for this delivery. Won't be a problem.
