Good evening folks.
I lucked out last year by finally finding a nice helmet with good fit on clearance.
Not much snow here this week, just enough to sweep off my deck and stairs daily.
Keep those irons hot Jack, something will turn up. Has the economy picked up abit yet or is it still sluggish?

Hey Steve, there`s snow on the way Tuesday afternoon and evening into Wed. Not too exciting for us as freezing rain is also a good possibility, after which it turns colder again.

The weather is the most contrary thing possible. Any other year when I would curse the snow because all I did was clean it up, shovel and plow, we'd get lots... This year I buy a sled, and every promise of snow fizzles into a wee little flurry shower... I'd rather not have freezing rain though!!!

Evening Morris and Sherm!

It did flurry a little today! It was looking good with all the cold air, but this weekends heatwave killed it!

I'll do my share of plowing also... always work b4 the play, but at least this year I'm prepared to play. I wish we got the 3ft dump like much of the north central states got...
