Nice sled. A friend of mine used to have one like that. After the twins were born he figured he wouldn't have much time to ride so he sold it. It was a very good sled. I picked up a new battery for my sled. It will be nice to have electric start agin. "LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW LET IT SNOW!!
I am out of order until further notice. My "stupid people" filter needs cleaning and my "give a damn" batteries have run out.

I did a wee bit of trading at the gun shop today and feel that I came away much the better.I got a Ruger Model 77 Hawkeye in .223 with a Bushnell 6X18X50 scope.Good looking like new rifle.Can't wait to get to the gun club and shoot it.

If you have to take a second shot then you probably shouldn't have taken the first shot.

I was going out to blow snow when I remembered that according to the Mayan calendar, the world is going to end tomorrow (21st). So I said the heck with it.

Nice work Stan! I did some gun trading today too. I wanted to trade my Benelli (Super 90) for a an AR, but I ended up trading it on a different Benelli.
No snow here but there is a nasty wind that kicked up and cooled it right down.

Hey! you figgered out that fan yet? burning the midnight oil on it as I type this! actually I forgot all about it with hunting season and all. I'll see if uncle Dusty or Dave can remind me how to make them, I think it's a laptop fan and a battery? I'll get it.

Darn Mayans. Ended up having to blow snow. Glad I didn't max out the credit cards!
We ended up with only 8". Middleton (Near Madison) was the winner with 19.5".

19.5" IS Plenty. They can have it!
A lot of ours melted last weekend with the rain. I'd say we're probably down to about 6-8" left on the ground. Maybe a bit more.
My dang step-dad is trying to talk me into one of those snow scooters like ND just got. It's been many moons since I've actually owned one. There is a lot to choose from in about any price range you can think of.

I lost interest in them years ago. My dad sold SnoJet, Rupp and Wheel Horse so we could ride anytime. Gor bored with it and never went back.
Speaking of backs, I don't think mine could handle the pounding anymore. I know the new machines are much better riding, but your body still pays a price.

Well there is NO WAY i'd get a new machine. Lotsa $ for those babies. I realistically won't be getting one this year.
The new(er) machines ride a lot nicer and are lasting longer and longer.
