Yeah but waiting to get home to start that up.... after shovelling 3 feet of snow.

Snow on the beach?

That's why I've taught my son to run the tractor with the snow blower on it.  Of course, he's pissed that we haven't had enough snow the last 2 years to need it :)

I think you could substitute any of the Deep South states for NC in that one, Brant.  We were making jokes about that in the parking lot at work this morning.

Already loaded on both.  Got the batteries before Xmas on sale at Costco, then found that we already had packs of each in a different drawer than we normally store them.  We've got enough AAs to survive the zombie apocalypse at this point.
We got extra milk last weekend when the grocery store had it on sale for under $2/gal and stored it in the spare fridge.  Doesn't expire until end of this coming week, so we're going with it.

Forcast just went from <1" to 1" to 3" here in DC. Radar looks blank to me though.

Got to watch out for that stealth snow.
