Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Put the snow blower in the back of a pickup truck, and drive south until someone asks me what it is......

Then build a house there.

When i was deciding to move out of boston mass, i had a choice, a chance to move anywhere i wanted, and I decided to move to Portland, Maine!  Arghhhh%#@*& 

Heh heh .... when I had a chance to get out of NJ, I moved to Kennebunk, Maine. If I ever move again it'll be north - it's getting crowded here.

Bill's Law*: Where ever it doesn't snow, there's something worse.



*Ayup, I made it up, and nobody has ever proved it wrong. Tornadoes, floods, hurricanes, Santa Ana, earthquakes, mudslides.... None of that here. At least when the snow melts my house will still be there.

I remember one night about 11 PM I was driving about 25mile away to a job site to clean snow for the company i worked for. The snow was realy comming down, the hyway was a slippery mess. It was bed time but I was just on my way to work. Temprature about 10 degrees. I had just moved back from Florida two years earlier. I slipped into a trance while i was driving and when I got there I started kicking myself in the ass.

Winter is hell for working people.  However, when one no longer needs to brave the elements to get to the job, winter don't matter that much.   I live on the Canadian Shield.  Four or five months of winter two months of what I call "no mans season" (April and November)  and five or six months of spring/summer/autumn.   Got to make the best of it.  

Put the blower in the trailer, head north and stop when I start hearing people say "Where'd you get that dinky little thing - eh?"  :-)
