    We were supposed to get a bunch, but it switched to sleet halfway through. Got maybe 6-8'' of just nasty heavy snow. First year in a new house and glad I now own a snowblower.

    Here's a pic of the stacks and a pic of my half buried Christmas tree that we'll put in a firepit this summer.

    I've got the same thing and will not take the time to learn to text. A phone is used for talking is the way I look at it.

    But then, I learned a lot about smart phones last evening on here....amazing piece of equipment, but apparently they have some sort of control over the users to make them do dumb things!!! No matter, just blame someone else.

    In other good news, the clock on the VCR is once again the correct time!

    Took a little spin out back to check for blow downs Finally had a chance to be home for the first time in a week looks like 8-18" depending on where the drifts are.

    I can't wait to get a wood shed built. Winds weren't to bad here, we're kinda protected depending on the direction. Started snowing here again the past few hours giving a few more inches. Next system Saturday, much smaller!

    You might want to consider a deck thats covered.. in this snow I am not going thru azz deep (yup its there now) to get wood to house... wood deck is out a door from room with stove.. in fall fill it usually empty by spring then it's the wife's sunset and wine deck.. hell took me an hour to get a path to tractor in drift up to shoulders...

    As long as you have enough battery, they'll usually fire on even the coldest morning. Got an issue with the 325D, it's starting harder than it used to. I'm wondering if the preheater solenoid might be bad. I also have a lot of blowby out the crankcase breather. Need to pull the valve cover and see if there is an injector oil o-ring leaking and check the HUEI pump pressure. Been having quality issues with our oil lately.

    I know it's hard to tell but this is the pond that has just barely been frozen over a couple times this season. There is a 200 acre field across the road. The snow is blowing off the field (from the left), across the road, across the pond and into the pine woods (out of the pic) on the right. It looks like it's still snowing but it's not. That's just snow being driven by 30-40mph winds.

    I've given up on the driveway until this wind calms down.
