Now that sounds like a great day!

Today is nice here in Calgary high 18, yea that's +18. I'm sure we have lots of time for more crappy snow though.

Keith, temperature wise you should send some of that nice weather down NB way, we are having a pretty nice day with -2 and almost no wind. It's the calm before the storm! Expecting 25-35 cm...as if we did not have enough.

Had a good day today, seen a couple of nice Mopars, but for the most part it was Fords and Chevs. Pretty nice show just the same.
Keith, take the nice weather while you can, it is that time of year when it can change in the blink of an eye.
Jean-Guy, maybe you guys will get lucky and the snow will miss you.
Sheldon, what are you doing in the garage today ? Did you get your Diff, back yet ?

Well plans changed, i ended up cleaning the house went for lunch then Sold $300 worth of car parts to a guy today, so i dleivered those. Came home had a nap and never made it out to the garage. Will try tonight, I want to keep going with the wire wheel on the drill and clean the rest of the floor and engine bay of the car. Need to strip the front end off again too.

Good morning all, looks like this might be a nice day. Probably going to clean the interior of the daily driver. Anyone have any good ideas on how to remove Road Salt from the carpets ? Routine stuff first, walk the dog and grocery shop.

Morning all, Dan a scrub brush and a bit of hot works for me.

by **smoken340** Sun Mar 15, 2015 6:17 am

Thanks Ed, Someone told me to put some vinegar in hot water, but I didn't want the car to smell like a fish and chip restaurant .

by Grumpy427 Sun Mar 15, 2015 6:30 am

Spray 9 and scrub brush works very well. i use that here a lot.

by JGL Sun Mar 15, 2015 7:12 am

Good Morning all, no Dan no such luck, the snow did not miss us, 50th birthday party last night so I slept in. the older we get the harder on the body those parties are. Next weekend its my retirement and my daughters CA party together...try #2. Now off for some breakfast and then my wife has work to do on her lap top for a part of the day.

Turned my nose up at the " Honey-Do" list this weekend. I'll do a little next weekend, but the following Sunday, I'm going to take in the Ancaster swap meet. Don't care if I buy anything, just need to spend some time around rusty metal and grease.

by JGL Sun Mar 15, 2015 4:03 pm

NEWS FLASH....no honey-do list here, don't even have time to think of it, good ol snow has priority over just about everything. Went out after supper and cleaned out a bit so my son could possibly get out in the morning so he can go to work and me not having to get up early. It all depends on the wind and what the plow leaves behind. I see a day of cleaning the driveway tomorrow...or maybe just 1/2 day.

Well if I was closer I would for sure JG! Spring is near, all the birds were singing outside today. The sun came out and was refreshing. Almost ready to have a beer and listen to some Fleetwood Mac. Have great night fellas.

Cheers!

Another month and you will be missing the snow and complaining how hot it is. lol.

by JGL Mon Mar 16, 2015 5:24 am

Not one month maybe two.

Good Morning fellas. Moncton area as of this morning got 44cm or 17 1/2 inches of nice new white stuff. The wind really played a viscous trick on us this time. Was out to clean part 1 of the driveway. Just came in and cleaned enough so my son could get out and go to work. He works for the Times Transcript newspaper which is owned by the Irvings, need I say more? All the snow banks which had melted 1 1/2 feet are now 2 feet or more taller. So my 10 foot mountain which had melted to 8 1/2 feet is now 11 feet tall and you should see the patio. I had shoveled to below the top of the railings but it is taller than it was before, only 12 inches from the roof!
