Good morning everybody! 14* according to my phone about to hit the road again should make it home today. I tried to leave a little early yesterday and decided to pull in hang out and let the plows work a little more. I need to get to the house so I don’t stop and shop anymore But I really did need a new set of felt’s

 

5 here in central NH wind is howling, finally a normal January day most ice is not safe or even exists. We should have 18" of ice by now.

 

Good morning. 12F here.

 

Morning folks. Another cold day starting now at 5*. I'm wore out over this but heading south is like cutting off another finger. LOL
Y'all be warm and safe out there.
Time to get busy.

Few posts back it was mentioned about me using chains.....

Not on my new concrete.

& YES I'm very glad to still be upright instead of flipped over. Tractor flips kill a lot of people in my area (Hilly)

Went back out & gave it another shot this morning & got it as good as its gonna get. 10* here so the sun will have to do the rest.

Gonna go warm up now.

 

Probably

 

we did the first uhaul from Omaha to WA back around Thanksgiving. I’ll be doing another one from the canyon in the next month or so. You on my route?

 

Our roads finally got plowed. I guess when you’re on an island, you’re the low priority with the county.

Just around the corner!

 

Never took concrete into consideration. I didn't know they used concrete for driveways in cold climates. My bad

 

Morning all

 

Concrete if done correctly is the best for paving. Taken care of concrete will out last asphalt by a lot. Asphalt is a lot cheaper, ya get what you pay for.
In Michigan rich folks can heat the driveway with hydronic heating systems, they work pretty good down to 20*.

 

Rain is predicted for the next month straight.

 

Can't like that

 

We have some rich folks that have heated driveways but they are usually pavers or cobblestone

 

Unfortunately I live in an area with a high level of freeze- thaw instability, it beats the crap out of everything.

 

Same here some roads that are 50mph can only be driven at 25 mid to late winter and we have already had 3 mud seasons so far and it's not even February.
