This is getting old
On top of the blizzard we got last week we got an additional 8 inches this morning. And wouldn't you know, none of my good trucks actually run.

We had almost 4 foot snowbanks in Mass. as of last week! It rained a few days ago and now they're down under 2, but it's going to be single digits tonight so now it's going to be a 2 ft ice pack til May! Until the week before Christmas, this was one of the barest winters we'd ever had. I love the snow, but it does make driving 30 year old rear wheel drive trucks interesting...

I HATE SNOW!!!! You can keep the snow just send it to GA. I got a aunt that lives in Cummings GA an they cant go no were in the weather with the Benz & Lexus. It would be funny to bail them out with the truck with rebel flag an loud rock an country music pulling up to a GA mansion with it with loud exhaust. They said it shut down Atlanta for a while. I wish it on them every year & love it every time they get some. Other than that forget winter bring on spring & summer some martinis & bikinis.

We got about 11" last week and it's snowing again. For southwest Missouri, this is ridiculous. If this keeps up, my girls won't have any summer vacation for all the make days they'll have to do.

Here in OK we have had more than usual as well. 14" last Tuesday and another 4-5" today. Had some warm weather in between to clear off the old stuff though. Doesnt bother me too much.
Got my old truck stuck last week but I got it out with just a shovel. Today, it was so cold that my windows were freezing up on the inside. Defrost just couldnt keep up.
Overall it is kinda fun to drive in though. Reminds me of growing up in Nebraska where I learned to drive. We always had a good time in the snow.

Hardly anyone agrees with me around here, but July thru September down here it is consistently high 90's or even in triple digits and HUMID. I have no A/C. That is my choice so I dont complain about that, but even walking outside is miserable. Like walking in a furnace. I'll take cold over that any day. I can put on another jacket in the cold, but they frown on nudity in most areas in the heat.

I am about tired of the snow I have had a new front tire and rear and front wheels bearings ordered for my 81 Honda 185s for over a week and the weather has delayed them. Most snow we have had in a while in Western Ky and I can't even get out and play in it.
I have the Bronco ready and full of fuel but I decided I better leave it alone in case the weather gets worse and I need it to get somewhere.
