Just went out to check on the neighborhood. Found a guy in a Jetta wagon in a snow bank........idiot.. National guard has a few hummers here on the island. We got about 20ish inches. My 55 year old, out shape neighbor is trying to clear his driveway with his snowblower. It's not self propelled. I go over and help him with mine and tell him it's easier to help hi now then to do CPR when he has a heart attack.

I had to look that one up. Hmmm, I'd make one but short on lemonade. On the list. Sounds tasty!
 
I tried one at the golf course this summer. It's basically all I drink now! So good. My wife likes the firefly vodka, I like the deep eddy. Try both to see what you prefer.

I will !
I just ordered both vodkas online. Hope to have delivered by this weekend in time for the Pats game.:)
 
Of course spring comes in July but who's counting right? :)

Just got home from work since Monday morning, 16hrs OT and 36hrs DT......cha-ching! Stove went out of course with nobody around to tend it. I got about 24" which is about 2" over the height of my snow-blower, drifts were about 35" but they are fluffy so no issues there. Plenty of seasoned wood in the garage, I keep a 6' hotel linen bin full at all times which holds about 2-3 weeks worth. Its on wheels so it moves around easily if needed.
 
Haven't yet tried Shed. My brother brought down a 12 Heady Toppers and 12 Lawson's Sip of Sunshine over the holidays. Love those VT beers!

Does your Brother live in the Mad River Valley area? Its beautiful up there.

He lives in Montreal. Always tries to grab us some of it on his way down. Wish I still had some!

Here comes some more! Lemons and lemonade - at least the snow-shoeing is excellent.

Where I live we are right on the snow/ice line. Had snow overnight and sleet in the AM. Used Toro single stage on the developing slush (great machine for that stuff). By the time I was getting inside it had turned to a full blown ice storm, wonderful. Scraped the truck off and drove into work. There was 3 overturned vehicles and 4 other accidents. Treacherous conditions.

I live in Quebec. Snow/ice/slush is part of my life 4-5 months a year. Not a single accident yet. Proper snow tires and adjusted speed for the road conditions allows for everyone to get home safe and sound. Oh, and did I mention keeping more than 10 feet of space between you and the car in front of you is fairly important when driving 45mph?? lol

Then they can't be driving on Nokian Hakka 8s :)
