    Feeling cooped up, Dan? My road is usually the last to get plowed but I think they just came by. I do realize this was directed toward other areas. Lucky I got snow removal from the driveway and changing shredder plate on disposal to keep me busy.

    Snow? I have heard of it. It was pretty cold here the other day. In fact it was so cold I couldn't put the top down on my car until after lunch!
    My wife does all the driving, I just hold the steering wheel!

    Not snowed in. But we are suppose to be getting some tonight and tomorrow. they're saying anywhere from a dusting to 4".
    We'll see what we really get. I was thinking about trying to get out tomorrow.

    Are you sure you aren't just imagining all that snow Del?
    In the year 2000, Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, predicted within a few years winter snowfall will become "a very rare and exciting event". "Children just aren't going to know what snow is," lol
    Don't get me wrong I'm from Iowa and actually hoping for global warming!

    Unbelievable what the eastern US is getting hit with in the next few days. We usually get our bad weather in the northwest in February and we're still good here for now, but you guys back east please be careful!

    Looks like you (we) got a snow day out of it. Can't take the day to detect but you can build those muscles with snow removal so you will never need a rest from swinging the detector.

    Anyone want to hunt tomorrow?

    When I think of snow days it reminds me of building forts and having snowball fights. lol
