We don't let our tornados run all over their country so why should we have to put up with their weather coming down here and taking a big ol snow dump in our country?

C'mon 61, were just one big happy family.....we love to share.

And it won't even stop for Christmas. Compare with the earlier picture and you can see it just keeps piling on. Doesn't look like much, but we did have a very slight thaw of an inch or two the previous day, so.............

Just glad we didn't do the fuel price panic thing and get rid of the Tahoe. We had three family/friend gatherings yesterday and wouldn't have been able to do a one of them without the 4X.

I put in a back-up gen two years ago because we were getting 5-7 day power outages every second or third winter. As often happens, now that I'm prepared the outages aren't happening.

We did the same in 2004 and haven't had an outage over 5 hours since. My wife said it was the best money spent, just to ward off those lengthy outages. A similar happened in 1996 when I got tired of shoveling snow and bought a 48" wide snow blower for my tractor. No more blizzards for 4 years, and only had two since then.
