Will we ever see grass again?

I'm getting tired of the snow. Its hard to bring in firewood, feed the animals, move parts vehicles around....... everything you do is hard.

He truckrod, you still have the 66 f250 for sale? I just might be interested in it in "a few months" LOL! I bought my kids a Pac Man video arcade game for the family room. werent you an expert at it? They think its cool, these kids are a blast

Hey Brian, Hope all is well on your end of the county. I havent been up your way in a while.

Hey Walford, Hows your buddy doing? LOL!

I cant believe this forum is this slow.....................

Bigwin.....Kevin is fine.......and you should think about FLORIDA property. It is cold this winter, but much better than Ohio this time of year.

No thanks Bill, Even though Ohio has its faults, there is no where else I'd rather be. There is no place like home........

Actually if I HAD to decide on another place to live it would be Colorado. I lived there in the late 80s. At one time I thought I'd like to live i Wyoming or Montana but both have TOO much open space. There a lot to say about convenience, Thats why I like it here.

The house next door that I bought has this way cool cabin in back. Now I can go on vacation and NEVER leave home! lol

Big, Hey I can't agree with you more regarding the snow. I'm really ready for warmer weather. Here in north west PA I get hammered with Erie lake effect snow. My chickens have held themselves up in the barn for 3 months now, Their gettin a little batty.

I was reading in my Fairlaner magazine that Summit raceway(Norwalk) is not going to do Fords at the Summit any more.They say low turn out mostly weather sucked.
Kevin I saved the magazine for you that has your truck in it.
