''philcollins said'': Forecast of 15cm of snow for tonight, will see.

HA, we got you beat, we are in the 25-40 cm area, with highish winds. I see snow blowing in my near future.

Lucky you. Very Happy

Snow started last night, with Wind... probably not as bad as you but -12 and Wind of 32 kmh.

Will stay home today

Good morning, looks like we got off with only 23 cm, or that is what they said on TV's weather network but a nice little -13 to go along with that.
I do the prep work like the puttying and sanding but my wife does all the corners and paint trim. There will be some snow clearing but that can wait as we are not going anywhere and are not expecting anyone.
Have a great day all.

Good morning, 1 maybe 10 by the afternoon. Well that winter crap is over for us, may get a few showers today but no more cold and thats good. The tulips are up about 3 inches so I bet thay are as happy as we are that white stuff is adios. Some sun and cloud for the next few days and Monday is a stat holiday so should be a nice usuable 3 days.
Have a great day

We got about a foot or so between last night and today. It's still coming down too!

by **Keith Mopar** Fri Feb 10, 2017 3:37 pm

Wow Brad that's a good snow fall. We had just over foot of snow but over a week. and the week before about 4" and by this time next week if the forecast holds the snow will be gone and then we start all over again... lol

by **smoken340** Fri Feb 10, 2017 4:11 pm

Good day all. The damn flu came back with a vengeance, been in bed since Wednesday. We got about 5 cm. of the white stuff this afternoon. Expected to end by midnight.
Brad, all looks bad now, but by April it'll all be forgotten.

Dan isn't this the 2nd or 3rd time this winter?

by JGL Fri Feb 10, 2017 4:45 pm

Hey Keith, isn't there any snow shoe babes or something to look at??

by GONEFISHIN' Fri Feb 10, 2017 6:03 pm

Hey guys - little improvements day by day - surgeon says rigid splint for at least another month (except during physio) - can't get up the stairs, so no shower, but at least I get a PSW for a daily scrub - starting flex physio on the mashed leg tomorrow Surprised

Second time this year and for some reason its really hitting me hard this year. My wife is gone shopping so this allows me out of bed for an hour or so. I'm so damned tired of lying down and sleeping.

I had to search back to get caught up on this. I hope you come along quickly. Cruising season will soon be upon us. Cheers.

That should be good for business shouldn't it Brad?

I sent my gauge cluster to Mr Heaterbox in Harrowsmith ON for restoration. The cluster lens is cracked around one of the screw holes and a PO glued it on. They fear damage when they try to take it apart. Does anyone know of a very good lens that I could buy? It's for an E body rallye dash. The internet search begins!

Good morning everyone, wow I guess I'm not the first one here this morning, get better quickly Lyle, you should at least heal much quicker than when you have a broken leg; a cold -19 this morning and the forecast is for snow each day this week Monday to Friday with a total of 45 cm or more but it is still early so things could change...hopefully. We finished the painting of the bathroom yesterday afternoon. All we have to do now is get used to the new color and put everything back the way it was. Did all the snow blowing there was to do...I think.
Have a great day everyone.

Strangely Roseville only has the 70-71 version and not the 72-74. PG has both and Josh's has the 72-74 but not 70-71. Odd. I'm hoping to find an awesome used one for half the money. Those puppies are expensive.

Take care Dan and Lyle.

by Ragtacker Sat Feb 11, 2017 6:32 pm

Good evening, not a bad day at all. Not warm but it was sunny and I saw alot of it. Got up at 530 and went to one of the pubs I do work for and picked up 4 seats that were torn brought them back cut and sewed new covers and took them back. So much for my new rule not to work weekends thats the 4th weekend this year I have worked. Worked on the car the rest of the day which is not work and got some stuff done, feels good to get some of the projects finished finally. Like Phil Collins said Dan and Lyle take care
