Goooooood Mornin!!!
What a fantastic weekend so far.
Cam n I shoveled and played in the snow for most of the day yesterday. With warm weather coming and low slope roof, well, we had to shovel that too. 3' on the gazebo and in the valley's. Was kinda shocked it was so deep considering we did it late in Dec.

Sherm.......I hear ya. Wife's adjuster is a lady tho.....

Grant........awesome to hear your movin on the 56!! You should start a build thread with lots of pics for us!!

Feeling warm out there today, maybe tackle the wood sheds and mancave!! Get ready for the warm weather coming this week!!! Can't wait.

I stand corrected, I said "his superior", should have been his/her. Either way, I take back nothing I would look for a higher power to express the unfairness and poor attitude of the adjuster. In the current days of "equality", men and women must take criticism alike, even as they are given equal jobs.

Cheers...

Yesterday I noticed a little fleet of Kubota tractors doing snow removal, seems they're getting popular.

I told Dawn that I will not be coaching ball this summer, so that should free up a bunch of time for me, but I've been saying that for the last 2 yrs, lol. Have a great day guy's.
I`m in the same boat, I still need a lot of parts for my 53 and 56 M100`s.

Yup, very cool to see pics of kids still in TGO. My girls love it outside. Have some pics on my phone of them helping me with firewood yesterday.

Is it stormy anywhere else? Beautiful snowy day here in our yard, outside the yard its a howling blizzard.

It was nasty here this morning, so bad the wife stayed home. Now it is beautiful here. Just spent the last 3 hours in the yard clearing snow, playing with the kids and took a little spin with the sled around town (literally) with my son. The snow is just terrible still though. Also, I have a B1700 Kubota too. Makes short work of the snow and other jobs around the yard..

By lady I was meaning that it kinda shocked me she would talk to the wife the way she did. I hear ya on the equal part, we've decided to appeal the boards decision. See what happens, worth a shot

Got my oldest up on the roof today. Low slope/safe. She did the 8x20 woodshed and 10x22 shed attached to shop. I snapped a few shots of kids and snow today. In 14 years living here, we've never had this much snow in the yard. Did the roof's 3 times this winter. Snow on backside of shop/house was a couple feet away from the eaves. Going to be an interesting spring for those close to the red river if it's a quick thaw!! Run off here is great, goes straight down.
-2 in the forcast for tomorrow and another "daddy day" with no school tomorrow so we'll try and unburry the s10, ole blue and the f150 in the back 40!!

We got a bit of snow and wind this morning, it cleared off by noon and was a nice day. -6°C and calm, this is the nicest evening we`ve had for quite awhile.

Morning everyone. I finally have some time to myself to come on FTE while everyone is still sleeping. Was a busy weekend for us, driving all day Saturday and had some family time yesterday. It was blowing snow pretty bad on our way home from my aunt and uncles house but we made it safely home, just took a little longer. Hopefully everyone had a good valentines and a good weekend.

Curtis, sorry to hear about your wife's claim being denied.

Happy Holiday Monday mornin'all. Yup 4-5'' of the fluffy white stuff. Yesterday Dawn backed in to ditch in frt of our house and scraped the side of the Edge against the 2'' angle iron ditch marker. The neighbor pulled it out, and I spent 2hrs buffing and polishing. Still have to color sand and polish more. Boy talk about excuses. Jordan was driving home from grocery shopping, and I was giving him what for, for driving to much to the right. I said you'll end up in the ditch one day. we turn the corner and see the edge in the ditch. When I got in the house she was already on the offensive. "I have a headache and Kalan was nattering, and thru her off. I called BS and told her she just didn't pay attention. Our driveway is so well marked, you could land a plane in a blizzard. Any way I just dropped Jordan off at work to wash trucks all day. My neighbor gave him a 96 VW Golf, and he needs to make $$$ to make it safety worthy. Curtis; I have a roof rake if you need it. The wind here is so strong nothing sticks to the roof (2 Story). Well it's off to home and clean the driveway AGAIN. Have a great day.

Crappy deal bud. Don't need a roof rake but thanks Grant. Nothing over 4/12 here.


Neighbor just sent me a vid of their kids hockey game yesterday.
PLEASE TURN VOLUME DOWN, nothing but f-bombs from the parent of the sageen team.
Thought i'd share this as it was a topic of discussion couple weeks ago.
Unfortunately my son will never enjoy the game as i'll never let him play for this kinda stuff alone:
I will note my neighbors team in blue was all over at bench during the cerfufull.


There's another vid on utube as well, same but from another parent with the same f-bombs/outcome. Freaggen crazy I tell ya

Guess this is the reason I saw this on the news the other day:
