Between the recent extreme cold and the single lever backhoe duty I am pissed, Like cussing mad, like to the point if the little crap basket sewer rat owned by the hateful out beiotch across the street starts it's constant yapping at me through the frond door, it will die today.

Good morning, sunshine!

We have a light dusting of white crap on the roofs of buildings and things.

I'm afraid that Winter's gonna hang on until April.

[Rick V]

Well it is warmer here today, it's 40 right now combined with the rain we got on top of the 8 inches of snow it cleaned up fairly easily. I planned to getting the Boxster out today. So har it made it fifteen feet until she decided to take an ass end left turn. She managed to dig herself back into her parking space and there she sits. At the rate of melt we are having I expect her to be out in a couple of hours. I raked all the crap thin so I am letting Mr. Sun do it's job. I really want out of this area and it is going to happen. I told Beth either she can come with me or stay put but I am leaving.

[Jim Richards]

Zero environmental impact golf course?

They take the area that is going to be landscaped for the golf course, dig it all out, put in a big barrier liner, gravel, and drains/pumps. Put dirt/rocks/vegitation back. Any water/fertilizer/chemicals they use to keep the golf course green is collected in the barrier and recycled back onto the golf course. The golf course has no impact on the surrounding area.

The first one they built is called The Preserve in Carmel CA. It has grown to a community of 100 homes all based on the ideals of wildlife and habitat conservation for the area.

Thanks Richard, and it just proves that golf is hazardous to the world

Best of luck to your mom Sid.

Got another 6-7 inches last night. Just finished up the town roads. One of the big trucks is in the shop (again) so we had to use the grader, Mack, and the 1 ton. We have close to seventy miles of town roads but a lot of them are class 4 so we only have to plow around 50-55 miles. Took us 7 hours (each) but we haven't sand them all yet.

[Rick V]

Hey Pete, you want to take a break from the snow and go to Atlanta and pick up a truck for me? It's a big truck

[pete3799]

The only truck I have now is the F-550.
Do you need a detachable or will a step deck or flat work? Need ramps?
I can make a call. A friend of mine has a detachable and a step deck......no idea what part of the country he is in the moment.
