[Thomas]

That was our Monday price for gallon of 89 octane from Shell.
Diesel still holding firm at $1.34 gallon from Exxon..strange. /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif

<font color=blue>Well, gotta look at the bright side of things... At least there's no mud. </font color=blue>

It's there, lurking, just waiting... /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Stop and gas up after work tonight,and gas went up 2 cents more a gallon since 1pm at Shell.
$1.27 gallon 89 octane..here we go again. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

9F and the wind still howling between 15 and 20mph..ahh..looks like I better start the woodstove. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

 

[Rowski]

Wow, I can't even buy (for wholesale, we sell gas too) it from our distributor for that price. We raised today out price to $1.379 regular, full service.

Boondox, Thomas


Did it look like this? Looks like fog but its blowing snow.


There's supose to be a driveway here some where/w3tcompact/icons/hmm.gif? Had to plow that drive twice yesterday from drifting. Almost felt like the coldest day of the season. Looks like more snow for next week/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif!

 

[Thomas]

Please Derek don't post photos like that,for you give me cold chills and I only had 4 cups of coffee. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Something about plowing in drifting snow takes the fun out of tractor time...once you get the snow all push back and clean up and head into warm up..also a hot cup..you notice of hear a voice the driveway etc.. needs attendion again..arrrr. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif but it is New England so I shouldn't be whining. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

More snow on the way you say for next week /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif nope,wrong,no way,not going to happen for I shut the snow valve off also took the handle off..I want some warmer weather again. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Have you taken your new son plowing yet..in a couple of years I bet he will get a blast from it.

In my corner of New Hampshire, the Keene area we have had Robins around for over two weeks. Just down the road from me there is a large dairy farm next to the river where the Canada geese stop going both directions. About 3 weeks ago a large group of geese, over 250, have stopped for a while on their trek north.

Spring is in the air!! Oh, wait a minute spring is now falling white on the ground. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

You have to love it or you'll go /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif.

More spring is expected to fall Sunday night into Monday and maybe Tuesday.

Derek, "full service" is almost extinct in our area. I do know of two service stations that aren't self service in our part of the country, and of course, their prices are usually about a dime a gallon more that others.

 

[Boondox]

Yup, that about paints the picture! The only good thing about this blow is it's going right down my road scouring it clean. Usually it goes crossways and buries it.

Thomas ol' buddy...

Are you sure you turned off that valve? We got a minimum of 8" last night/w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif I'm leaving now to plow all our drives. You now we could work something out with this valve thing. When I'm ready to plow snow.... I'll call you... Tell you to turn on the valve... I'll call you to turn it off/w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif. Now I'll give you... lets say... 5% of my plowing profits/w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif. 5% doesn't sound like much but we plow 100 drives/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif. You don't have a picture of this mysterious vale, or is it top secret.

Take care....

 

[Thomas]

You folks got 8" of snow last night /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif..heck we had few clouds and half moon over here plus warmer temps /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Yikes..100 driveways to plow,guess you shall be busy for the good part of the day.

Bet you could take some real nice photos today while you are plowing..hint..hint. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif
Sorry Derek no can do on the valve. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

 

[Rowski]

It was pretty fluffy stuff. Up in the mountains is was close 16"/w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif. Well That one is done with. Now we need to deal with the mess coming tonite. They claim we're suppose to get everything but sunshine. Take care...

 

[Thomas]

Indeed there calling for a mix bag of nasty weather,be extra careful when out and about plowing and towing..watch out for the other guy.

 

[hwp]

Winter came back today - even had the tractor out to push the snow off the driveway, too wet and not enough to blow. On the whole, I can live with having winter in March. This way it can't last long. The golf club opens on Sunday but it doesn't look good at the moment.

THOMAS:weather stinks here in western ny also. got about 3 or 4 in of snow last night, drizzle type rain all day and sonow again tonight,ground is a soggy mess. i long for hot dry weather/w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif

 

[Thomas]

Indeed its been a strange ending of winter and begining of spring. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

 

[Thomas]

I hear you loud and clear about warmer weather.
Got about 3" of snow and 1/4"of crust on top,and I dislike the thoughts of plowing this mess.

 

[s1120]

Yesterday was strange here. Poured all day. Started out as sleet, but then just rain. /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif Well, we DO need the water.

 

[EdKing]

We had a real gully washer here yesterday. Rained all day, pretty heavy at times. All the creeks were overflowing thier banks. I can't wait for it to dry up so I can get some decent seat time.
