There's no need to have a wind greater than 20 knots!!!! After that it's too much. And the snow????? It's white here this morning....

Iwas trying to do work around the acreage today. That wind was just about lifting me airborne. At one point going into the house the wind darn near took the door off the hingesand me with it. I could not pull the door shut due to the wind holding it open for a good minute.
Loaded a truck that I sold here with extra hoods. It was help then psuhing the truck onto the trailer. He was taking it to a another place where a semi trailer was to load it and take it to Alberta.
No it was not a ford. It was a 66 GMC parts truck. Belonged to a friend storing it here. Glad to see it gone. NOw does anyone want a cheap Chevy truckwinter beater. No extra cost for the rust.
