So....Snow sucks?
« on: February 27, 2010, 09:38:30 AM »
So, I didn't have power for 24 hours....I got about 3 1/2 ft of snow...my back hates my guts right now.

Only my car, the Gray one with snow tires got dug out so far...the red one (gfs) is still buried under about....6ft of snow from drifts and snow blowing....thats my task for tonight.

I had to get the ...around 4 ft of snow off my roof....which fell infront of my door, then I had to dig about 5 ft of snow away from my front door to get back in my house.

So, I figure, I had such a shitty time with this snow, let me go do donuts and atleast make some fun of it....I go onto a side street and find a big empty parking lot off of a dead side street, and have some fun....then a state trooper rolls by, pulls me over just as I come out of my last drift and yells at me...told me to grow up and stop driving like a jack ass and go home.


I want the snow to die....  :knuppel2:

That sux... I'm on the wrong side of the river.. we got rain, and it melted like 6-8 inches of our original 18. Now everything is just total slush.. AND the 09 toyota tacoma we use to snow plow burned up its clutch at 4000 miles..

Good luck with the wifes' cars!

Thanks...

My car got stuck...or almost stuck about 4 times getting off my mountain. I red lined her atleast 10 times getting her unstuck, thankfully she's ok.

I am sure all that snow was a pain in the ass, but I wouldn't know. I was on a bus heading to NJ to go on a cruise when during the storm. Home now and its all gone.

I went to HS in Pulaski, NY therefore am well acquainted with deep snow.
