Had a friend drive from Fairbanks to Wasilla last night said 25 mph was way too fast. I got to go to my shop in Birchwood this morning might be fun coming off the hillside. Be careful out there.
Wasyphilis & Palmersa are wet today !

Must be that pesky Chlamydia Change or Gerbil Squirmin acting up again and squirtin pus

Snowblower (POCCPS from HD) wouldn't move that heavy wet snowing the driveway yesterday. Plan C was to wait until today and pack it with the snow machine....

Even the neighbor's good Honda blower was largely ineffective - doing as much pushing as blowing. The augers just couldn't catch that wet crap and pushed it ahead. Managed to get a minimal drive/path in from the main access road. (She isn't home)

Plan B (plow truck) came available and he was able to clear mine with some difficulty. Should make a good scatting rink now when it cools off again. I think I still have some skates, tho those dog turds might cause stumbles.
Gonna have Big Lake Rent All drop off a D4 sized Case dozer to plow my shooting range driveway and lanes, after that snow dump and this stuff It will be hard to get back in there and I got a bunch of ammo to burn

My own private, personal slice of shooting paradise !
200 yards straight out and everything in between to 1100 yards to the left and out to 500 yards to the right ...

Gonna set up 200 yard increments of steel all the way out when the real Spring arrives .......... in Late May early June, lmao !

I decided to plow yesterday , figuring it it gets really slickery, I can hit it with the ratchet rake.

Guess what?

Only 20F here but hoping for a bit of thaw tomorrow to slide some snow off my boat shed.

DON'T SLAM THE DOOR! smile

The entry to the lower garage level is under this. Good thing I have an extra remote in the house that I can use to get in thru the bay doors.

I could have designed this garage better.... there are at least a half dozen things I'd do differently. frown

Ain't big enough, of course.
