WOW.....talk about the hot old west, and that snow joke!!! Here in the mountains of East Tennessee, took my granddaughter to Dollywood Saturday evening, though only 5 1/2, she loves the Christmas musicals..It had rained earlier, but was clear and 70 at 5:45. However, it cooled off clear down to 58 when we left at 9:30pm!!! O'course it was only 19 degrees at my place in Alaska, but NO snow.
Rex, I remember the 'blizzard' of 1960.. there must have been 5 or 6 inches of snow. Helped my little brother build a snowman in the front yard. It started leaning over, so I drove a piece of 1 inch pipe down through it into the ground. That evening, a couple of my hooligan friends drove by and thought it would be fun to knock it down. One of them jumped out and threw a tackle on it. The next day it was leaning a little more but still up, and the tackler was complaining of a sore neck and shoulder!
The big thing then, none of my folks cars would ever start when it got cold, even when you poured a kettle of boiling water on the intake manifold! Later, living in Alaska I learned that original equipment batteries don't last forever, and you have to buy one once in awhile.
Well, merry shoveling to all, and a happy new year!
Mack, if you can't get them out, there are several recipes from Jeffery Dahmer's cookbook that are easy, Sloppy Joe, beans and Frank, etc.

Mack, Herb Finney is going to bring over his loader and we are going to pick the broken part up and put a bolt through it. Roland Schenck said it would work. He is in the tree business. Good luck with Sam.
