Well, we ended up with about 15+cm yesterday, but it did get up to -5. I had my driveway half shoveled , then my neighbour arrived home from his work and did the rest for me with his ATV. Thanks for good wish Jeff.

 

Morning all, -20c this morning and been snowing past few days. Just enough to make it worthwhile to plow.

Had to order a new tx case shift motor for the ‘06. Used it to pull the plow out of the snowbank the other day, didn’t want to shift out of 4 lo properly. Gave me grief a week or so ago too.

 

Good morning everyone, supposed to be above zero temps until Tuesday here and has been beautiful and sunny the last couple days here..

 

We got John’s nice weather, sunny and 2c yesterday. I was finally able to get my barn doors open. Back to winter today.

Mike, do you know anything about ‘Regional Spring’ or ‘Sudbury Truck and Trailer Centre’? Our local spring shop here closed up a few yrs ago. Looking for new springs for on the ‘06 250.

 

Jeff, Sudbury Truck and Trailer is more of a repair center, I deliver parts to them. Regional spring is the go to place for all the shops here. I plan to use them to replace a broken leaf on my F150. There is also Traction Truck Parts in Lively, but they are just a parts retailer, they don't do installs. Nice sunny day here yesterday, got up to +6. The roads will be frozen ruts today, currently -11. We had a water main break several blocks over, been having to boil water or use bottled water since Monday. You don't realize how for granted you take turning on the tap until something like this occurs.

 

Perfect, thanks mike. Sounded like that on their websites.

 

Morning All, -15c dripping to -20’s tomorrow. But, I can feel some heat in the sun again now.

I called Regional last weds, gave them basic info. He grumbled something about seeing what they had and would call me back. Don’t know who I talked to, but didn’t sound like he’s having a good day, lol. Haven’t heard back either.

 

The counter guys are older , likely close to retirement lol, all I can say is I pick up springs from them for other shops to be delivered. I asked about the leaf for my truck, they offered me a good deal when I'm ready to have it done. That is where I will be going if I end up doing it. It is a fairly big operation, they have a big shop, there is aways big trucks etc lined up in the yard to be worked on. I can't say if they make the springs on site, or just keep a big inventory of product made elsewhere.

 

I’ll give them a call again if I don’t hear back.

-20c this morning, and calling for snow again.

 

We got 5 inches last night here Jeff..

 

We are on our way to that right now John. Turning into another long winter, with no end in sight.

 

Decided to stay in for the rest of the day, used the blower then did the remaining of it with the shovel, shoulders were already sore from the sanding I've done in the past couple days. The bit of shovelling this morning was enough to call it quits...lol

 

We were forecast to receive about 10 cm overnight and another 5 this morning. I haven't looked out the window yet, but know I'm going to have to brush off the cars at the least. We are definitely paying for the easy winters in this area the last couple of years. I can't compare to Jeff as far as snow goes however, that would be like complaining about sore feet to a guy with no legs.

 

It’s actually slightly odd if it doesn’t snow just north of the Sault. We got snow yesterday. About 6” or so. Warmed up though, -7c this morning.

 

Good morning Jeff,Mike,Doug and Marten..had another very light flurry here but the wind blowing the snow off the roof made the biggest mess covering the car and front deck...
