I had to fudge around with the HTML and edit my post to get it working. I had to use the youtube tag in the post thing, and paste the WHOLE embed tag from youtube instead of just the youtube link.

Supposedly where I am we are only supposed to get an inch or two...but we'll see. I got the snows on my truck and some sand bags in the back. Snowblower is all good to go too hehe.

ah your prepared. I was too. Turns out I'm logging this year a 1/2 mile from the house.
Brought the backhoe home yesterday and I've plowed my road out to the highway,
plowed and shoveled the sidewalk and parking area at the house. Now, if the State would just plow
that stuff off the hard top.  ;)

Oh wait, the dairy down the road had to get the milk truck in whilst I was plowing.
Tri-axle with chains on all wheels. They also took the tractor and plowed the our hard top
out to the secondary road so, maybe the State will get the secondary road out to
our counties primary two lane.  ;D

Hey Colin, for some reason my you tubes quit embedding all of a sudden. Wonder what gives.

Are you hunkered down for the blizzard. We're done with it and sending it north.  ;)

            We might get the cold (to us) temps, but at least we do miss most of the snow and ice, most of the time. :-\  Sure don't envy you all getting THAT! :-\ Our stinking temps just keep going up and down! No wonder folks are all the time getting sick. ::)

How bout some JR Cash and Kris Kristofferson. Kristofferson was an Army Chopper Pilot and a Ranger. He was set to become and Instructor at West Point when he resigned his Captain commission and went into music full time. While working as Pilot for a charter service, he landed in Cash's backyard. Johnny came out with a scatter gun. Johnny took this song    this song and some others. The rest is history.

Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

Emmylou and Gram Parsons, first.

Now, I think Dwight Yokam does this best but Gram's was first.
Heck, Gram may have written this too!

See if any of you remember this. Not Country.  It actually hit #5 in 1975. It is almost forgotten and  the video is almost unobtainable.  ;)
