I ended up taking a vacation day today because when I went out this morning to fire my truck up to warm it up the windshield wiper mechanism was froze solid, the wipers weren't froze to the windshield itself but the arms themselves were froze and wouldn't budge. I figured the time it would take to get all the snow cleared off and free up my wipers plus the slow drive on the slick roads to work I'd be way late.

Looks like it'll miss us this time, which is a break, at the moment it's 2C and brilliantly sunny.

Yeah, I miss the snow too. Been pretty dry in Colorado. I've only seen a few dustings here and 1 light snow of 8".

We were generous enough to share some of our snow with you Virginians, enjoy.

We got 8 inches but that isn't a big deal here.  Been having carb problems with the snowblower.  After taking it apart and cleaning at the start of winter it never ran right after setting it all back to factory spec.  So I have been fiddling with it each time I have used it.  This was the fourth time and I finally got it running perfectly....I can easily deal with a motorcycle carb but a simple snowblower carb gives me all this grief. ;D

On another note...baseball seasons starts in about three weeks...still knee deep in snow at present. ;D
