    Evening all:
    Oh crap, hoping for a quick recovery for Paul! Looks like "HE" now needs a few days in the BODY SHOP to repair his body!
    Wishing him all the best!

    Cabinets look great Tom!

    Welcome to a couple new guys, plenty of chairs left on the porch!

    10' of snow is a bit much! :eek:
    We've been really lucky here, and have been getting more toward the bottom end of the predicted range, it's been an unusually cold winter though.

    Which Michelins? If my use was all highway in a climate like yours, I'd go with Michelins. My FIL has sworn by them for decades.

    x2 ;)

    Snowbird huh? If the kids/grandkids set down roots in AZ, which I think they will, I'm starting to make plans along those lines. :)

    Oh no, I just sent Paul an email before reading he was in the Body Shop!! Sending good thoughts his way!!

    I lost my big buddy, Charlie, yesterday. We spent two weeks chasing problems only to finally realize it was advanced cancer masking as a post-op infection. We helped him cross The Rainbow Bridge yesterday afternoon. My heart aches - he was a beautiful, loving companion. My Big Brown Butthead, Triple B, my riding buddy. He loved to hop in the car for a ride to anywhere, it didn't matter. Run free, sweet boy.

    :eek:.Really sad news about Paul. :pray::pray: prayers going out to him for a good outcome on his surgery and a quick recovery. I hope he has someone to help him out at home.

    :woot:for the new cabinets Tom, they really look nice. The missus must be happy. How is everything else going?

    Welcome to the new fellas. Always room for more. Retirement is a good thing if you keep yourself occupied and out of the missus way:D...

    10' of the white stuff :eek:. we just got 9" yesterday and that's way to much, but wow 10' too much for me. Glad it's starting to melt and hope you don't get anymore:thumbsup:

    :bananadance::jellydance: for getting new Michelins for the Tacoma Sue. As for a "60's wanna be" , you'll always be one of the youngsters in my book :D Sue. Enjoy the ride on the new Michelins.

    Morning Rob, How is the tropical :rolleyes: weather up there in Alaska? I would gladly trade you. Have a good day.

    Hey Carl, how much snow did you get yesterday? I'll post some pictures later. Got about 10". That's about 10" to much:D.

    Home brew wine :thumbsup:. Tastes better than the store bought stuff. Got a bottle from a friend years ago and thought it was sent from heaven it was so good. Shortly after that, he got bored and stopped making the home brewed wine:mad:. After his stock was gone so was my chances of scoring another bottle:eek:. Be safe heading to Fla. and enjoy your vacation.

    Sorry to hear about Charlie Mark, My heart aches as well when I hear of a friend and buddy passing on. Even though they are only with us for a short time, they are still family and will be missed.

    Hang tough Paul! Spring is coming and we need you back here. :)
    Hard to go wrong with either one, based on what I've read here. They should serve you well for a long time.
    Welcome! Pull up a chair, cooler's over there. Don't be shy about filling it up every now and then.
    RIP Triple B, you sure were a handsome devil.

    :wave: Morning all. Raining all night so far, supposed to turn to snow Friday afternoon through Saturday afternoon. We'll see. :rolleyes:
    :( Sorry 6. Big good looking fella he was. Something about that unconditional bond that sure hurts like hell when we lose them.

    X2! Sorry to hear you lost him Mark.

    Only got maybe about 2-2 1/2" of snow here Ken. We would have had more if the rain would have changed over to snow a lot sooner.

    Talking about the homebrew: the old guy I know (Ollie) made it to 101 and counting, by drinking his homebrew!
    That should be a good enough reason to drink it! :D

    Paul is in my prayers for a quick recovery.

    Mark: Sorry to hear the bad news on the pup. There is a special place in heaven for pets.

    Ken: The back and leg pain is considerably less but I just wish it would go away. I have an appointment with the back doctor next Friday. Then on to Physical Therapy, I hope.
