    I have lived here nearly 30 years and have just got to a tolerable relationship with my neighbors. They are a surly bunch, not that I haven't stood my ground with them, but it's usually me against about 4 of them. Let's put it this way: they routinely call the police on each other. Enough said.

    Good Morning Folks :hattip:

    Got some snow, a few inches. We're on the north edge of this storm. Cleaned up around the house so the little dog can get out. I'll plow the driveway later.

    I felt the same way when we did moms house. They worked their whole life for stuff and we were just giving it away or throwing it out. My brother thought that with us 6 kids we would pretty much take everything. Didn’t happen. The hospice center had a resale store, so we donated a lot of stuff.




    Continued prayers for your dad



    Thats a good excuse to tell the wife, when your tring to convince her as to just why you need to spend the money.

    It will give you a excuse to get out of the house when the MIL visits.



    I remember those days. Then in spring, picking up all the gravel out of the lawn. I always call it the yearly gravel migration. Then I wondered just how times I picked up the same piece of gravel.

    wow never traveled much but went bear hunting in Maine one time. my uncle drives tractor trailer to Maine every week. told me the roads to take and what to go around. coming home @5pm decided to go strait thru Waterbury Danbury which he told me to bypass.lord have mercy. 85mph bumper to bumper. held tight and went with the flow. that made this country boy have sweaty hands.we were in our 20’s back then.

    Then you are going to get snow.
    No.

    That counts as shrinkage

    Major shrinkage

    Never go thru Salt Lake City then. 5 or 6 lanes each way, folks going 90mph, bumper to bumper, some on ramps are 4 lanes but they have lights to allow only one car up at a time, that goes on for about 2 hours. Went thru there a few years back and I was terrified! I'd like to have been hooked up to a BP/heart monitor...thing would have pegged out for most of that drive.

    I don't like traffic... I get anxious going down Jackrabbit Lane here. OH, BTW, they dropped the speed from 70 to 55 there. Long over due, not sure why they left it at 70 when they started adding all the traffic lights. of course no one pays attention to the new speed so thats fun.

    That's the only way to re seat a bead on a tire plus it'll fill the tire with air

    The first mistake was still calling it a lane

    It's a highway
