    As horkn said...you can put money on it that if you take that som bitch off...it will snow like mad. If you leave it on, no snow for the rest of the season. Seen it too many times haha.

    Now I am confused.:confused: Sounds like you are more conflicted about what weather is ahead of you. And to that, my friend, there is no real answer that I have any good insight into. No good odds one way or other. I have looked at the predictions, the farmer's almanac, even the groundhogs. Can't even go by what birds have shown back here. What is that French song, "what will be, will be".

    It is Hollywood language, or the songwriter's 'artistic prerogative' as French would be Ce qui sera sera


    and that, LOL, is a bit of a trivia rabbit hole

    edit: one more rabbit hole diversion, "Que,sera,sera" could quite likely be a malapropism on the author's or authors' part .

    Take it off! I want a blizzard!

    I have to admit to everyone that I caused the death of winter back in January.
    We have a plow blade for the F350 at work, but haven't mounted it in three years or so.
    My boss suggested mounting it, and I did, and we haven't had anything plowable since, sorry, my bad...

    Hey Chaz, here’s another outstanding FHC member:thumbs: and of course you may have come to know a little something about Backwoods Savage.... :handshake:

    I tell ya, if there’s a GTG near you (provided you haven’t accompanied a member/friend to one), elect to attend. This FHC is so full of unknown everyday American heroes, it’ll simply blow one’s mind, :sir: :salute:

    I was just talking to Jill about that today, I SOOOOOO want to take the plow off, but I know I'll end up laying in mud re-attaching it for the next bout of white stuff.

    I use the 4-wheeler all the time for my wood, and the winch is a necessity. I was outside a LOT today, and really looked at the logpile and wanted to get after it early this year.

    No, not for another 2 weeks at least for me. I know we're likely due for at least one more plowing before spring is here. Just this last Thursday we got 6 inches between when I went to work and just before lunch. :doh:

    Nope.. not yet for me.

    Over here in far eastern New York (I meant Vermont), March is usually when we get our one big whopper of a storm. The ones so far have not amounted to more than 6-10" at one time, the March ones usually start at a foot and go up from there. I was hoping to get my tractor serviced before I needed to get into the woods to collect firewood, but I am not risking it as the bucket is my only driveway-clearing device. I'll wait for a wet spell in early April to send it in.
