We need more snow. Snow is money.
We need lots of snow because the diesel cat is shredding my lawn.

Most of us are usually up for anything. Start throwing out ideas and once we have something substantial we can create a dedicated thread. NEST (New England Seven Threes) also has a GTG at the end of the month I believe. I'm sure Petey will chime in next time he is online.

Wow. Wouldn't have thought you'd have worn-out shocks at 37k that's pretty sad.

The cat is doing great. The only issues are my lawn and the garden dump cart. A little more tuning is in the works. Needs a little more timing and more fuel.
