Bhigdog Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Thursday it was about 75 degrees here. Just about all the snow was gone. I figured I would soon have the cars out for an excercise ride. I took the plow off the tractor. This AM we have a brand new foot of snow on the ground......Bob <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R Walling Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Bob, so it was you that took the plow off the tractor. You are the one thatmade it snow on all of us. Shame on you! I had my snow plow ready and running since early NOV. Thats why we had very little snow until you had to screw up things! <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhigdog Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 At least I left the chains on the tractor. Farm type tractor, major pain to put on.

Bhigdog Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 Yeah, I saw a flock of robins here Thurs. It's going to be awhile till they find any worms. I have a lot of feed and corn out for the others. I even have a murder of crows stopping by for the corn. They always post a lookout in the trees while the others eat. Very intelligent birds.....Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Bollman Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Bhigdog, are you new to the area? Up here in NY I don't take the plow off the 8N till mid May and never take the chains off.I admit to having my hopes up but, we have even had snow in May so I never jump the season.

Clincher Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I'm as Irish as Paddy Murphy's Pet Pig, but I've given up on Saint Patrick and celebrate instead "The Feast Day of Saint Kermit and All Frogs". It really works. Heavy rain early this morning washed all the snow away. Think Green! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wowabunga Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Hey 38 chevy.... I was drive'n in fog, at night, in my Geo Metro Convertible (luv that car) and was in upper middle New York state.... when I saw this huge beast on stilts (long legs) slowly running across the interstate. I was afraid. Luckily timeing was on my side and I barely missed the critter... was wondering what that critter might be ? Elk ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stock_steve Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Argh, at least the drivers out on I-95 all kept it sane & reasonable on Friday evening's commute home--slow & steady, no problems (nary a nervous, tailgating SUV driver in sight--amazing!). Lovely how all the semi-wet precipitation that fell overnight from Friday to Saturday was completely frozen by Saturday morning. Some challenge even getting to the point of being able to try the key in my car's door! Thankfully some nice sun out there now, "as we speak" (Sunday afternoon) here on the CT Shoreline--hope it helps speed this latest snowfall's departure...

Guest Ranchero79 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Doing our best here to trick the snow into ending. Down to the last couple handfuls of rock salt (bought 200lbs last fall). Therefore, the snow must end. Right!? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
