OT;...snow cake GROWING!!

[b:fe9e68797c][i:fe9e68797c]Finally, we can get Hermie out of the shop to do some plowing, AND, I got the snowblower back up and running. New belts make it throw snow again. :wink:
I ended up, hiring a FEL to plow out the upper driveway. WOW, there was a LOT of snow there....wet and heavy stuff. (you can just make out the mounds in the frt deck tunnel pic. background.)

Still snowing, and expected to give us up to 18" total, by tomorrow eve.....OH GOODIE!!! :shock:
Snow cake;



Gonna start shoveling, and snowplowing again tomorrow.

I love it, when a plan comes together!!! :lol:

We have gotten 1.17 inches of rain in the last 24 hours and it is heading your direction!
Get your shovel handy!

Just wondering do you ever get tired of snow cream... Its spose to be a lovely 74 deg tomorrow then turn cold again .... I got to get my tractor in and add some more antifreeze to the tars they froze solid last week...

If that's the case, I'll be plowing mush instead of snow. :twisted:
It's been so warm here, that we are getting nothing but wet/heavy snow this yr. Makes for a big mess, just trying to go anywhere.

Yep HOBO......I must admit, here lately, the snow thing is growing to be a pain in the hind-end!!!
Chock it up to 'old age'.....but I still would like to go snowmobiling. Just got too many things going on here, what with Leslie and her tribulations after her accident!! Been a really hard 4 1/2 yrs, since the accident.......(SPENDY TOO)

Hope all is well for you there!!

Surgery went good 4 hours on table, time will tell if it helps the kidney function or not. The week before surgery wife fell and broke a bone in her had, she had surgery on that just a few days before mine. Got to take in to Portland tomorrow to get it checked out. Always something, but were still living so I guess everything's OK.

Those a purdy pictures buddy! Please keep it all out there!
It was about 40 degrees here yesterday and 50+ or so today.
With rain. All the snow went away. Tonight, the temperature
is supposed to plummet. Now, as you know, nice, smooth, ice. Yea.

Other than the piston orientation post, everything is going well.
I've got that sorted out to my satisfaction now, so it'll be good.
Each rod bearing plasti-gauged at 1.5 thou for clearance.
Paul, my machinist, did a great job again.
