    Default There's snow place like home!!

    Somewhere under this white blanket is a pool that I can only hope is still there when spring rolls around. I think I've had enough of this stuff

    We had 7 inches of snow yesterday. I am thinking I have had enough, also.

    How deep is it in your yard?

    We just picked up 10 h to go on top of our previous snow and ice. Good dry stuff, wished I had some cross country skis!

    Got about a foot here. Just this past Sunday it was in the 50's and I was running in shorts. It looks like we're missing the Nor'easter that was supposed to happen
    this Sunday, so that will be good.

    I'm in the Beach area of Toronto, lost a couple of big old trees in my backyard, and we got bombed today with snow, almost like it was when I was a kid, before smoking and BBQ's destroyed the atmosphere.

    Mel Lastman, I remember that, I was in Mexico, and saw it come on CNN Latin, thought it was a joke, but then this happened:

    I'm sure you hate it by now & I hope your pool is O.K.

    but those photos are beautiful & if I was there I would shovel a path to that BBQ grill & cook something up,,,,

    It's about 2 1/2 to 3 feet. The snow on the BBQ is just from today about 1 foot.

    Great minds think alike. The path is just in front of the picture. The snow on top on the BBQ is just from today. Grilled up steaks for diner tonight.

    I have to report that since I bought the much Newer, Bigger, more Powerful, Faster, Kubota last year after the big snow, I have hardly used it to move snow off the road, much to the chagrin of my lovely Bride who refers to it as "Her Cadillac"

    It is amazing how wives never forget the price and reasoning for expensive purchases we need to make our lives easier regardless of whether it is ever used or not.
