    so far so good with Chebby and the AT3's. haven't done a ton of driving when the roads are bad but the little that i have been out i haven't had any complaints. they're surprisingly quiet too.
    Toy has the older AT2's and he's always done good with them - had them on when i was still commuting every day and never ended up in the ditch.
    @jwctaco don't you have the Falken's too?

    I guess tonight is our "christmas convoy" - the holiday light parade when a bunch of local contractors decorate their trucks/equipment with lights and drive through town. i think i posted a bunch of pics from last year....anywho i wouldnt have known if i didn't notice people parking on my back yard a little bit ago.
    single digit temps....i think i'll be partaking from the warmth of the blankie fort and just watch from my back windows

    so far no but folks clearly missed the "do not park along the route" memo. whole street is jam packed.
    don't expect the convoy to be by until 7ish but folks have been out there since 530 :laugh:

    :hattip:Evening everyone, went out to eat with our daughter and her “live together “ boyfriend. He is a great guy and they have been together for awhile. So we’re at this upscale beer and pizza joint, he grabs the check before the waitress can set in down on the table. :spending:I really like this kid.:thumbsup:

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Good evening all,


    I stopped at the grocery store on my way home and there was a Salvation Army group of children and adults singing Christmas carols outside the store. I always drop some cash when I see them. The group sang well too!

    Math is hard. o_O

    That’s awesome Mike. I used to go to the local hockey rink with my Granddad years ago. Good times!

    convoy is over. folks are defineitly getting better at this. 2020 was the first year thrown together at the last minute but it was a cool thing some businesses tried to do to make up for the rest of the xmas festivities in town being canceled. lots more planning going into it and more time setting everything up on the trucks.

    if i was a nicer person i'd be out there with my recovery gear to get the cars that are stuck in the snow moving again. but i'm not so :proposetoast:

    Most of the ones I moved today wouldn't burn without lots of smoking - they are wet / soggy. I do have a 7' tall pile of sticks and leaves to burn... have to wait for a calm day since the leaves love to fly when burning...

    I did something tonight that I haven't done in almost 2 years.. I met up with a buddy and a group of his friends to listen to some live music. I remembered this band, (South Paw) they have a few songs where they play the melody of one song but sing the lyrics of a different song. The best example- Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues melody to the Whos Pinball Wizard lyrics.. it was funny to watch the peoples try to figure out what was going on.

    Remember when we were young how we didn't go out until 10 pm to give the geezers time to leave the bars? Yeah, I left the venue at 10 pm because I was getting tired...
