Go get some "banana boat sunblock" and do outdoor activities!

You will like it once you get used to it.

Afternoon everybody.

Another wind storm and blizzard on the order tonight.
Don't ya just love Alaska.

The state also extended the time you have to take off studs do too all the snow.

Mom was remembering when they got married the river had a bunch of snow.
The ice was thick back then also.

I wonder how many people would already have dismounted their studded tires?
And is the extended season long enough to warrant putting the studded tires back on?

Today my grandson and I swapped the studs for summer tires on my Wrangler. He is a beginning driver and I have let him used it for the past couple of months. (He is stoked.)

He has taken auto shop and really has some finess. I was impressed.

lol almost everyone on my street has a con-ex or 2-3 we all know eachother and we all have crap in our yards. we're at like 20 cars/trucks. no issues though.

its the kind of street where a moose can go missing and the whole street has moose burgers the rest of the year if you catch my drift

it doesnt look too bad though, this was in sept '09
