    my neighbor just tried to go down the road in his pick up....its a heavy duty jacked up monster with 33 inch tires....he got right to my property and had to turn back....at first i thought he was plowing but when he emerged from the snow i saw he was just ramming the snow banks to get through

    Our major snow storm fizzled out and rained yesterday into the night. It was 40F degrees at 12 am. Now it is in the low teens with wind chills below zero. So we are left with a lot of ice with some snow that fell today.

    I am glad because Dad is in the hospital and I had to go over to his place and get some stuff to bring him. No rest for the wicked.

    enough for the plow guys.....plow guy saw the mountain blocking my driveway and me with my teeny shovel.....so he stopped and rammed all the snow off the mouth of the driveway

    I feel like I just gave myself frostbite in my own kitchen sink.

    Pulling tails off frozen shrimp under cold running water should not be a Wintertime activity.

    It was a daily activity for me for years at my place of business. That is peeling frozen/defrosting shrimp, mostly in the 16 to 20 per pound size. Of course it is relevant to the winter months. In the summer perhaps a different sensation.
