I'm kind of on your side... unless -40 comes right away too, then it can 'eff right off for good. I'd like to see a milder winter with lots of snow. I've got most of my stuff under cover already, which is something I've always wanted...to be ready for winter.

Morning Fellas, happy hump day!!

I wish it didn't stay dark for so long in the am...

As much as I hate it I can keep my driveway clean quite easily and usually a couple neighbours too but nobody could ever convince me to like snow, 50 years ago was a different story however.

Happy Hump Day mornin'all. I used to love winter, even prayed for snow. We still have our sled's, but never get to use them. We won't sell them, cause we can ride from our yard. So I'll go thru them again to just put 50 or so miles on them this winter. After the last 2 winters, I really grew a hate on for the cold and snow. I've got to buy new tires for the Edge and a couple for my POS, and now Jordan has a car, so more tires there. If the temp's stay above normal, I can put up with the snow. Have a great day guy's.

I much prefer plowing snow than lawn care.

I use MT tires as so not to be concerned on purchasing winter tires.

Plowing is probably less labor intensive eh TJ? I did a little last year with my 3038E but it was too bloody cold to enjoy it. If I had a cab/heat, I'd be a happy camper.

Ever since I was a kid I always enjoyed fall and winter the most. Fall meant hunting, trapping, and snaring into the winter, then snowboarding and snowmobiling... I even enjoyed shovelling snow...still do if the temps are reasonable.

Have a good evening folks...

If the years were actually divided into 4 equal parts I could maybe enjoy winter more but when you get 7 months of the damn stuff it's a little hard to take. Spring summer and fall are the best for me now that I'm in my prime,lol
