Original Message Dec 17, 2004 8:39 pm

All the teasing in the NorthEast is getting old. Getting ready to take the bus out to Shovelers house to pick up snow.

Ken, that's a lot of customers! How many of you tackle those?

Two of us do it in about 6-7 hours. We have a tighter list this year and that really helps with the timing. Also, of the new ones, we have several that are 2 or 3 at one stop.

We just got a winter storm advisory here in central OH! Calls for 4-9 inches in the next 24-36 hours! That's pretty good for us, and my little Toro is dying to be deflowered.

I'm sure they'll be wrong, but I can hope!

It was a pain in the butt "flurries" Yesterday here in Revere Ma. Blowing where you didn't want it, and so cold I could only stay out just long enough to scatter a little rock salt...

All quiet on the NE (NY upper Westchester) front, does not look like we're going to get any snow for some time. Monday was a big disapointment, I even left the coating on the driveway because it'll rain tomorrow & melt everything anyway. The Ariens is just waiting in the garage raring to go, but can't even find any dead squirrels.....

Just a couple inches here in west central Iowa. Got out blower,threw it in gear and blew snow from the git-go. Didn't have to wait for bucket to get full or anything. Done in 45 min. with drive and walks. Live on corner lot with alley behind garage. Felt good to finally get some snow to use blower on.

Happy Holidays to all. May the new year be a glorious one!!

A couple days ago Ashtabula had 22 inches. Yesterday Mishawaka IN had 26 inches. For Wednesday Columbus OH is going to get anywhere from 6 to 14 inches. What am I going to get? 2, maybe 4 inches, and there are no guarantees.
