    I'm about to get a burrito combo platter at my favorite restaurant. It comes in a plastic to go container, with plastic condiment cups and has plastic eating utensils, but gets a paper bag to carry it out because plastic bags are outlawed in Larimer County. Did I get that right?

    No idea. :D

    But funny story - the garage we built was built to the county's snow load requirement, but it's got a steep enough metal roof that the snow slides off pretty quick, and it never sees anywhere near that load. However this year there's so much snow on the north side that it can't slide down anymore. I'll have to get another pic.

    That's a testament to your snowblower. What brand/size are you using?

    It's a crappy, old craftsman actually. Nothing special but it works. 26" IIRC.


    Honda is the way to go with snowblowers, but $$$$.

    Good morning.

    Nothing wrong with stihl, but I try to buy Scandinavian made products when I can.

    I don't think it's that old unfortunately...

    With this cold it might be good to know that Costco carries a cheap Interstate 27F battery. Most other stores only carry the 24F.
