    I spent a summer in Nunavut and we had one week of almost 70 degrees in July and that was the warmest it ever was.

    Few years ago we had a very heavy year for snow. To get to my oil tank I had to cut through the road bank. It was as tall as me. Next year we had nothing. I took a picture of me in the bank and the following year in the exact same spot and day with bare, dry ground and a tee shirt. iCloud sees fit to make pictures disappear so i lost them but pretty unusual.

    It was a strange occurrence, upper 50's to 60 degrees temps. It lasted a few days before temps got back to normal.

    Hospital was flooded with sick people with pneumonia.

    It was probably the same storm we got hit with. It was one of worst storm we had, 6 ft of snow in 3 days.

    There was no place to put the snow. I had 8 ft snow bank in the yard.

    Hopefully when you mentioned "with bare" you weren't referring to yourself. Should burn the picture.

    It’s a cross we all must “bare” at sometime in our life.

    Hopefully I never have to cross that path. I couldn't "bare" it.

    G’morning, crew. More typical temps in flyover country today. Things ought to start getting wet and muddy, what they call ‘winter’ in these here parts.


    this looks like the exact machine the shop rented the other day. Seemed like a good’un, ‘cept the one they gave us, the auger cable needed adjustment. Engaging that right hand lever would make it spin, until it hit ANY level of resistance, and it would stop. Pulling the cable would get that extra 1/8” of lever travel and you’re good to go. With no tools available(company moving) this meant one guy walking along next to the blower pulling the cable, while the other dude operated normally. :angrygirl:

    simple adjustment I’m sure, but what a pain in the ass.
