I was driving down I-35E this afternoon when suddenly a bright light hit me and gave me a terrible fright. And then I remembered that I'd seen that sometime in the distant past. It's called the SUN!

Jesse they say don't eat the yellow snow.

. I was raised in Oklahoma and I can remember some cold winters back in the 50's.. we didn't have electricity or running water,, and it was only warm three feet around that old stove.:laughing:. Lou

Like MR said this winter reminds me of the winters when I was much younger, we just haven't had any real big snow storms but it just keeps adding up and it has warmed up enough so what snow is on the driveway has turned into a sheet of ice.

Put a 4x4 in a 5 gallon bucket of cement for a temporary mailbox stand until the ground thaws.

Or fill it with rocks then bury it in the snow. We used to put mailboxes in 30 gallon barrels filled with rock, partly because the mail box was guaranteed to get knocked over by the plow or wayward motorist but also because the ground was all river rock.

Thanks for all the suggestions......I'll probably have to go the concrete in a bucket route as everything else is frozen solid.......frost is about 36" down below grade at this time of year so although my ground is full of rocks I can't get to them. My mailbox is a good 10 feet off the road so whoever hit it was sliding pretty good......I'm guessing there were probably a number of beers involved too......lol. Due for another 4" of snow tonight which is a really annoying amount as it's not that much to talk about but it's to much to ignore so I'll be out plowing........Jack

This winter stinks, so much snow and cold. My PT has been a lifesaver pushing all this snow. I have been so happy with it this winter. No chains, just turf tires and it pushes it like one of the big boy plows.
