[sonicss31]

I'm getting ready to go to work for midnite shift at the power plant; got to keep the electric going to the grid. Hope my relief shows up in the morning. Just a little more ammo for my fight with wife:iamwithstupid: to move to Big Pine Key.

Let me know if that works for you. We've looked at places on Duck Key a few times, but my wife is afraid a hurricane will wipe us out every couple years. I keep telling her these places are many years old, but she's chicken......

Looked at a sweet one out on the one point where it had it's own little lagoon for a boat and swimming.....

[MattBMiller]

It's snowing everywhere but here! Grrr! :mad:

Let me talk to her, they have building codes down here. We've been coming down here 17 years and have seen a couple big hurricanes come through on their 30 year cycle. It clear sailing and prices are low right now, it's time to buy and Duck Key is nice.

BTW it was 80 today and in Michigan it was how warm?:sifone:

Over a foot on the ground and the wind is blowing harder than a busload of Stecz's. I'm drunk and just got done playing texas hold 'em with 5 of my neighbors. Won $120 and I'm stinkin' deerunk.

[Spicy]

We have about 22" on the ground so far and it's not going to stop until 10PM tonight supposedly??

heading out to knock the first layer off the walk and driveway...

[BBB725]

With 22" on the ground in WI and MI all that would happen is the buses run late for school:sifone:

Our clocks were blinking this morning, so it did something overnight, but we have power at this time. I have a generator, so the power never goes out here!!:rolleyes::sifone::cheers2:

Goin out to shovel now.....hopefully without chest pains!! ;) :D:sifone:

[Tommy Gun]

How much did you end up with?

[Gladhe8er]

Wow, send some of that to the Adirondacks. I haven't been able to ride our of my Lake George garage in a month! Pathetic that Maryland has had more snow than upstate NY this year.

[OldSchool]

How much did you end up with?

We have over 24" and they are calling for another foot today. Should end by 10PM:ack2::willy_nilly::ack2::willy_nilly:

It's all good. I'm glad that we love our neighborhood. good times, good times!!!!!:cheers2:

[Chris]

I just drove my son's Tahoe up our street. It's got a 4" lift and 35" tires. I pushed snow with the undercarriage.

I don't know how much officially fell, but packed in the street, it's over my knees. Close to 2 feet. 45 minutes away they got nothing.

[inbetween]

My driveway about 5 minutes ago. (and I live in the snowbelt in Ohio)

[MarylandMark]

It's deep here... and still coming down like no tomorrow.

Local bar doesn't open til 5PM today so may walk up there around then in case they didn't get enough of me last night.

I have to go get some more diesel of the Kubota but no reason to start when it's coming down this hard still.

[Ratickle]

We've got about 4" in the last 2 days......:sifone:

[rainmn]

Just went out with the snowblower for a little while.....F that. Time to start drinking. :cheers2:

It's hard to tell how much we have here so far, since it's blowing about 30 mph right now.

[MarylandMark]

I'm guessing my truck bed is 2' ? and it is backed up close to the house so a little sheltered.

17" on my back 2nd story deck but it is sheltered by the 2nd & 3rd stories and faces south so is blocked from the wind.

[03darkshadow]

im not sure how much we actually have but there are several 3+ft drifts. screw the atv i need a snowmobile. or some snowshoes, or just stay warm and drink beer

[Spicy]

I measured my snow blower and the guard is 22" tall and the snow was just over that when I did the front walk and my driveway, I went back out two hours later and there is a few more inches in the driveway, it's suppose to snow until 10PM tonight so we are going to be well over 30 inches by time this is all over with...

Craig call me if you go to the Neighborhood Bar, Sarah and I will meet you guys there!!!

[Ted]

Yeah, so I have to dig around to the front door to dig it out because it is blocked, YEAH! I promise when this is over I am going to buy a big MOFO snow blower, which will guarantee no more big snows in my lifetime.....

Several hangars have collapsed in the jet port area. One of the jets supposedly in there is the Redskin's, nice end to the season huh?

Snow is most enjoyable when it falls on someone else.

I would like to take this opportunity to formally apologize for bringing this snowy crap to Maryland from New Hampshire. I can't believe that I moved 600 miles south and I STILL can't get away from the snow!

Thanks a heap there Ange, we really appreciate it.

saw some big asss ones like that up here with plows on them. should have brought the camera, but didnt have batteries for it.

[Ange]

Believe me Ted, it was absolutely NOT my intention to bring that mess with me. I was most definitely trying to get away from it! Can we please bring on spring and summer now?

[Geronimo36]

I had an awesome time playing in it with my daughter. We're going sledding again today.. It's a good excuse to act like a teenager! :)

I have to move the 4 wheeler to get the tractor out and have some plowing to do before I can go 4 wheelin' - work before play, work before play...

If I had one of those smokin SOS jackets like Blee does I would have posed in it...

ps- my diet is working, those are layers a**holes and I wasn't go to shower until after the work was done..

Layers of what?:sifone:

CLOTHES!

If ya can't say any thing nice...

[Ange]

Again, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. Would grilled kabobs and crab legs make up for it? Sometime when this white crap goes away, that is.

[LaughingCat]

You guys are dealing with some crazy stuff up there. It got down to teh upper 40's last night. Had to wear a sweatshirt to Monster Jam. Kids loved it, once they put ear plugs in.

Stay warm. Might be in a short sleeve shirt today. Y'all hate me now?

:)

[MarylandMark]

Ok, if you insist.

I suggest feeding me beer with crab legs as well. If not, I'll eat them all night. Include beer and I'll be too disinterested to eat after a few dozen beers so usually works out cheaper in the long run. I think.

[Ange]

Mark, it goes without saying that there will be beer involoved. I thought beer was mandatory with any sort of outdoor cooking?

[OldSchool]

I ended up being late for pre-gaming because every one wanted their driveways done as well. I didn't mind- few older people scared to death already. They tipped- made $190! Woo hoo! Which quickly went to a good cause- sh*tty Super Bowl pool blocks.

[OldSchool]

Ted nailed it. It's just used to play around in our neighborhood

I asked 'cause I've been debating over Gator vs Rhino...will use it mainly to haul stuff up/down hill to boat dock and haul grass clippings to dump etc....but like the dual purpose of the Rhino for hunting.

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Its raining heavy here again. Probably means you guys are going to get some more later this week.

[Awaken]

Ended up with 28" at my house. I was worried about my Bimini but it seems to have survived. I walked down a few times and brushed as much off as I could. Can't wait for Miami!!

[rainmn]

Its raining heavy here again. Probably means you guys are going to get some more later this week.

There's already another winter storm warning in effect here for tomorrow night into Wed. :ack2:

[MarylandMark]

8"-10" on the way, starting around Noon Tuesday through Noon Wednesday.

Need to get more diesel for the tractor I guess...

[Biggus]

Man, weird stuff going on. Up here in Maine, were we want and need snow, there's been very little this year. Wish some of that "White Gold" would head up this way!

[MarylandMark]

KMA birthday boy! :sifone:

[ChiefApache]

We average 65-70" of snow each season. The last several years we've averaged between 100-110" of snow. Those are brutal years.

Right now we are sitting at 27.3" of snow for this winter vs 70.4 last year at this time.

Not complaining at all. I'll take the cold over the snow. But some areas that are not use to the snow are just getting blasted.

[Geronimo36]

They just issued a winter storm warning for my area, 10-18 inches.

My wife thinks I'm crazy, I still get excited when it snows!:)

[Shah Mat]

1 My truck Sat morning
2) Jeep
3)My truck backing out of my driveway.... It looks stuck but I'm in the tracks I made earlier that day.

[Shah Mat]

Here an old Ford 8N out there doing it's part..... This is rt3 in Fredericksburg, VA. Pretty good job clearing it up except there's no place to put the snow. Some intersections have huge 15' mounds piled up.

[Shah Mat]

I'm glad they have this sign on I-95..... I would have never known :bump:

I guess we are done...until Saturday that is...

My trip to Vegas for the Super Bowl party? The clowns that made it out there last Thursday are still "stuck" there. I would be dead I think...

I told one of my buddies the problem was not getting out of Vegas but getting in to DC. He hadn't thought of that, I told him they should try to find a flight to New Orleans to keep the Super Bowl party going and I haven't heard from a few of them since...

I have all the bright ideas but am the one stuck home working. BS I tell ya, BS!!!!

[BobbyB]

My flight from Fort Lauderdale was last saturday at 1:30 and it got moved to sunday morning and then they said wednesday morning. I wanted to stay but my friends had to get back for work. So we rented a car and drove home.

[MarylandMark]

There you go saying you have friends again...

[Ange]

I can't believe that I moved south to get away from snow and it has snowed here repeatedly since we moved, and not in NH where we left. WTF is up with that? I am so sick of snow. Two of the closest gas stations are out of gas and they didn't even get both lanes of the main road clear. We can at least get out of the driveway though. I am out of this joint tomorrow, I don't care if I only ride around and take photos!
