    Yea we've had about 20" sofar. Still 6" or so left on the ground. It's suppose to get to 50 tomorrow. It was 46 here today. I broke down and ordered a plow for my truck today. I'm tried of fighting with the snowblower. Every time I use it. It breaks down.

    The plow worked well, but needed some minor adjustments. They didn't adjust the lights and I picked it up just before dark. I had to drive real slow. Once it warms up I will adjusting the lights. I took a couple of washers off the shoe's so the plow sets lower.

    I need to tweak mine to get lower BUT it's a "tilt" deal ....running off the loader frame .... so my angle for the blade is the curl off the bucket QD......would have to take off and put them back on....such a pain before I'll deal with it till I get a set of short hoses made up and use the rear hydrolic block................ where's that Pete guy ?????

    We had a good trip down for the mini Meet and Eat yesterday........ got my rod replaced ( what a head ache that was) I think all new rods will be thru BassPro from now on. It,s much closer when I'm at fish camp...................anyway had a nice long chat with Ole Pete and he got to meet my son.................he was wondering about the LakeTrout derby for this year. As far as I'm concerned about it last year was a blast and if you guys want to do it that way again it works for me and I'm sure Ole Hoot will love it also....................

    Well it snowed last night and is snowing as I type this almost like the first snow of the year. But still have some left over driffs the snow is sticking in the feilds but the driveway is still  mostly clear at this. time........ when my son picked up my grandaughter last weekend he came over Red Rock south of us he said it was like you say Frank your area....... 6 or so inches of snow on the ground and Lake Gean on top had 5 or so ice-huts on it................  maybe some day it will warm up.......  Hooked-up charters is nailing them on Seneca the past 10 days or so. If you get a chance check out LOU the finger lakes section....wawawaw......

    Same to you Pete. Finally have some bare spots on the front and back lawns. But still there is more snow than not. More cold weather forecasted for mid week. I hope you and Karen, Carol & Ed have a great easter. Sue is in Boston with our daughter and I'm home holding the fort down.

    Well the snow is going fast. It's suppose to be in the 40's today and then the next 3 days it might hit 60. We haven't seen that in awhile. I hope the boat is coming along Ed. You must be getting eager to check out camp. Anyway I hope winter is finally over.

    Winter has been so long here, now that the weather is starting to break I've got so much to do and no time to do it. It seems the older I get the busier I seem. (or am I getting lazier)

    Thanks for the heads up fffisch. But they are starting to mention that 4 letter work again. (snow) The snow is almost all gone and now they say we could get a couple of inches of snow. It just won't give up. It might be June before I get out fishing.

    Well yesterday I got out the garden tractor with plans of putting the mower deck on it and getting ready to mow that green stuff we haven't seen in 7 months. Mother nature has got differant plans with an inch of that white stuff covering what hopefully will be green soon. The weatherman didn't get today right it was suppose to be in the 50's, instead I look out the living room window and see snow falling from the sky. Hmmm.

    Heck we don't even have buds on the trees yet. Croakuses are out and the daffadills are just starting to blossum. I think this is a normal spring but the last few years it came early. I've heard the peepers. I don't usually mow the lawn until May. I'm thinking of working on getting the boat out next week, see what the weather brings. This morning it is 30 degrees, yesterday morning it was snowing again. Gonna have to get the assault rifle out and shoot that ground hog, just got to remember to only put 7 rounds in it so I don't break NY new gun control Laws. LOL Good luck with the bushwacker and don't forget your camera. What's ya fishin fur?

    Well I think once you've had something for a year it ain't new anymore. I've bought new coins from the US mint every year and I haven't used them are they still "NEW" ?
