Is it wrong to be excited for the snow?

Digger 258 · Jan 21, 2016

I feel kinda bad - I changed my travel plans, and am now sitting in the airport in Houston awaiting a flight home to VA, just so I could be home before the snow. It will be my first opportunity to plow with the new PT, and I just can't miss that! The rest of my area is bracing for some snow-bound tragedy, and I'm giddy like a kid before Christmas. I find it hard to admit I changed my travels just so I can push snow with the PT! I even pre-staged the PT in the garage so I can avoid cold start problems. I'm sure it's going to be an improvement over my old Bolens . . .

I guess I have the PT sickness.

Hope my flight works out!

Ok it is normal to want to play with your PT. Wanting snow, not so much.

That's what I was afraid of . . .

It is perfectly normal to be like a kid just before Christmas while waiting for the snow storm. I take it from your location that you don't get to see a whole lot of snow at one time. The two feet that are forecast for your neck of the woods is probably the most snow at one time you have ever seen. Be giddy, be happy and above all else, be safe!

After the 2009 winter with 24" of snow (twice) in the DC area, I bought a plow for my PT.

For the next three years I lived there, I used it once (for about 4"). Every other snow storm flowed around the outside of the "get DC hot air bubble". Manasses, VA would get a foot. Vienna, VA would get a dusting.

Now I live in the Seattle area, and we never get snow. Anyone need a plow?

I think you were smart to get an earlier flight. Because after tomorrow mid-day, most airports in the mid-atlantic will start shutting down.

I don't understand the "snow haters", esp. when it comes to a really big snow!
Sure the regular small snows can become routine and a small nusance, but the once in a long time, up to your …. snowstorm still bring the kid out in me!
