you got that right, 3" will paralyze oklahoma and clean out the store shelves, and we've had about 3 good ones this winter, about 2 1/2 times more than "normal".

I AGREE. I bought a 75" snowblower for my tractor last weekend because I had the same problem. It was fun for the first couple snows, but I am ready to be done for the season.

It's that free trade thing. We ran out of stuff to exchange, so we gave you our snow in exchange for 3 stops on the Eagles tour.

When your snowbanks hit the 13' mark like they did around here a couple of years ago, I feel for you.
Seriously though, We have had it very easy this year compared to you guys. You just keep getting slammed, one storm after another. Kind of like we did a couple of years ago.
This year we have had Just a handfull of small storms. Tuesday's storm only gave my area around 2"-3" and then most of it melted away the next day.
I haven't actually run my tractor in like 3 weeks. All the cold cold weather we had kept killing my battery with the tractor just sitting there covered up. I finally installed a battery maintenance unit because I got tired of having to jump start the tractor in order to warm it up and cycle the fluids etc.
SPRING has to be close. I have been smelling the tell tale sign of skunks on the move.
