Just finished shoveling another 7-8 inches off the driveway. Supposed to get another storm tomorrow night dumping another six.

OK Nature, YOU WIN.

Boston set a record for December snowfall this morning.
If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    No you won't. Next summer the snow will just be a faded memory...and there will be other stuff to buy...and you will put it off...until it snows again...;)

    I would have paid good money to get snow here at least once in Dec. during my daughters growing up years....always had to trek up to San Jose to the top of Mt. Hamilton to get to the snow. Dealing with that **** as an everyday occurrence times of the year is for the birds....

    We got 2-3 inches on the ground here last night. I was disappointed. It's been pretty mild for PA so far. We still need our good foot-deep showstopper for the year.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    Finally gave up on snow this year and purchased a snowblower. It was painful to shell out the money, but now I am smiling every time it starts to snow....

    One word to the wise though. I purchased a cheap snow blower first ($350 at Lowes - the cheapest they had) and it sucked. If you are going to buy one, spend the cash to get a decent one. I just could not see spending $350 on something I hated. Ended up spending about $600 but am happy with its performace and should work out well for me.
