Anybody out there know how to do the snow dance?  We sure need to know.  We really would like some more snow.  This rain is getting outta hand.

That's not a very hard dance - I just hope I don't break a leg bouncing back and forth.

But Snowshoveler says that's not quite it - how do you expect me to do this right if you don't give me anymore help.

LOL

Well, no wonder it's not snowning, if he says that's not it, he hasn't been doing it right. 

okay its gonna snow now...

a little background info first.

some time ago i was the snowdance expert ,actually more like a novice but with much help from friends here i managed to pretty much screw up the entire eastern seaboard.

some places had almost 3 feet of snow ...i was a legend in my own mind.

but i digress ,that was then  this is now...and we need snow...lots

so anyway Miss snowshoveler is outside in the driveway wearing not much wrapped around this brass pole that Marshall told her to stick in the mud.

shes doing somesort of "dance" i dont know if i would call it that.

so there is a guy smoothing out the ruts in the dirt road we live on...with of all things a shiny new JOHN DEERE tractor.

its a 4x4x4.im watching him carefully.i mean the tractor im watching.its got a V blade on the front where the bucket would normally go .and a huge snowblower on the back.

nice cab with all the bells and whistles.

so anyway...this tractor driver sees Miss snowshoveler and thats the end of his road repairs.

he is watching her from in the tractor but cant see much so he gets out of the tractor and walks in the driveway.

so there is this nice shiny new tractor sitting there minding its own business.

i should mention our road is kinda on a bit of a hill a short distance from a bit of a cliff...

seeing my chance to finally get some snow i think about sneaking out to the tractor and letting the brake off and just giving it a nudge...

while im thinking about how long ill be in jail for this ...the darn thing decides to runaway all by its self.

mr tractor driver has no idea whats going on untill its to late ...you know a tractor in neutrall will pick up quite a bit of speed when there isnt anything dragging like a blade.

and wow dont they fly well for somthing that weighs about 10 tons.

sheesh what a mess when that thing hit the bottom of that cliff it cought a fire and that was a nice boom.

fire dept came but said wasnt worth sending a crew down to put out fire....just rocks and swamp and nothing else to burn.

not sure why a diesel tractor would explode on impact but hey im not complaining.

nice fireworks.

last time i was involved in a snowdance i was responsible for the complete destruction  of a honda track drive snowblower.

and that was the best snowdance till now .

while i wasnt actually responsible for the johndeers destruction ,i did suggest to miss snowshoveler that she do a snowdance .

so in a way i kinda got the tractor rolling as it were.

i think im still the king of snow dance...but dont complain when you cant see out your windows cause the snow is above them.

later chris    

ROFLMAO.  We need pics! 

Chris, that was as funny as it gets, even my wife is on the floor after reading it

OMG, O-M-G what have I done?

Really I didn't mean to do it honest.  I just wanted more snow.

PS - It didn't work - it's still raining.  All that distruction for more rain.

Well we got like 1/2 inch in my area east of Pittsburgh.  (I am in one of those belt,pocket type things, great if you like snowblowers.)

No big deal, but maybe your efforts are starting something, Kinda like a vulcano rumblin before the roar. (cause that is an improvement over rain.

Then again that rumblin might just be the after shock of all that bumpin an grindin.  Keep it -up.

Don't know how much more of this dancing I can do.  I think I may have seen a flake of snow today though, but it might have just been my imagination, boy do we ever need snow.  The guys are starting to talk about bringing mowers into the shop, and people are starting to call about mowewr parts.  Why don't some of you guys help out.  Maybe it's the more the merrier (or snowier however you want to look at it).

We had snow come (completely cover the yards and streets) and go (total melt) 2 different times today.  Weird!
