Pacific Northwest ! still snowing !

I maintain our 500' long road by myself year round. 3 other families + us use the road to get in/out of our places. Spent 4 hrs this past weekend removing snow/ice/slush. Not complaining, since we live at the far end of the road and would need it taken care of whether or not anyone else used it, but nobody in 10 years has ever even said "Thank you". Go figure?

 

Snoho neighbors are weird!

 

Bud, My Pussy Rot would end up a snack for pits.
Hey Bud, Dennis, how bout We meet for B fast new years morning at the stanwood cafe? Fed

 

Your pussy is rotten?

 

DUG says it smells like a nice summer breeze!

 

Hey, I'm all over that one. I wonder if they will be open? I'll call and see and get back with ya.
We have a car club meeting there on Tuesday night at 6:00 PM also.

 

HAHAHAHA...Dug would know, too HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

Yup! Still snowing. Just took this out the back door. I should have put a plow on it. OB

 

Yeah I guess our big melt is over and we're back into winter.

 

some of you fuckers are sick

'rain melted the foot trail 'tween Puyallup 'n Van Couver long enough to scootch down and load the peecup with another pro-ject..

 

Whaddja get Paul?

 

Yeah Bob, you do need a plow!!! Get some windas in that thang!!!

 

Nice score Paul but I hear there's no leg room in those old model Ts.

 

nice score Paul, but I gotta ask - were there any fatalities in that wreck ? Hell it spun the body 180 degrees around on the frame and knocked the tires off !

 

this is the '26/'27 T Roadster that modelahole advertised here on the HAMB,

I think there might be a screw loose somewhere though,
can you hear that?
maybe it's in my head

I thought instead of trying to sit in it
this time I will just sit on it

don't know,
but I'm glad the heap landed where it did!

 

Thats what I figured. I was "this close" to buyin that thing but held out. Nice score!

 

Dennis says stanwood cafe is closed New Years day, maybe Dennys instead? I emailed Dennis and told him to get with you and name a time. I will be there. By the way, betcha my pits are more chicken than your rot....Bud

 

glad to see that white stuff gone for now! next up is the wind,those fir branches sure can fuck shit up. you guys east are just having a regular winter.

 

Gone? On this side of the mountains, we got 10 inches yesterday. According to the news that makes 59.5" for the month of December. I was in Seattle for Christmas and there was more snow there than I've ever seen on that side of the mountains before, but there was less in Snoqualmie Pass than there was on my front lawn in Spokane.

 

Subject: Demented Snow Shoveler

December 8
It started to snow. The first snow of the season and the wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window watching the huge soft flakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a Grandma Moses print. So romantic we felt like newlyweds again. I love snow!

December 9
We woke to a beautiful blanket of crystal white snow covering every inch of the landscape. What a fantastic
sight! Can there be a more lovely place in the whole world? Moving here was the best idea I've ever had! Shoveled for the first time in years and felt like a boy again. I did both our driveway and the sidewalks. This afternoon the snowplow came along and covered up the sidewalks and closed in the driveway, so I got to shovel again. What a perfect life!

December 12
The sun has melted all our lovely snow. Such a disappointment! My neighbor tells me not to worry - we'll definitely have a white Christmas. No snow on Christmas would be awful! Bob says we'll have so much snow by the end of winter, that I'll never 20 want to see snow again. I don't think that's possible. Bob is such a nice man. I'm glad he's our neighbor.

December 14
Snow, lovely snow! 8 inches last night. The temperature dropped to -20. The cold makes everything sparkle so. The wind took my breath away, but I warmed up by shoveling the driveway and sidewalks. This is the life! The snowplow came back this afternoon and buried everything again. I didn't realize I would have to do quite this much shoveling, but I'll certainly get back in shape this way. I wish I wouldn't huff and puff so.

December 15
20 inches forecast. Sold my van and bought a 4x4 Blazer. Bought snow tires for the wife's car and 2 extra shovels. Stocked the freezer. The wife wants a wood stove in case the electricity goes out. I think that's silly. We aren't in Alaska, after all.
December 16
Ice storm this morning. Fell on my ass on the ice in the driveway putting down salt. Hurt like hell. The wife laughed for an hour, which I think was very cruel.

December 17
Still way below freezing. Roads are too icy to go anywhere. Electricity was off for 5 hours. I had to pile the blankets on to stay warm. Nothing to do but stare at the wife and try not to irritate her. Guess I should've bought a wood stove, but won't admit it to her. I hate it when she's right. I can't believe I'm freezing to death in my own living room.

December 20
Electricity is back on, but had another 14 inches of the damn stuff last night. More shoveling! Took all day. The damn snowplow came by twice. Tried to find a neighbor kid to shovel, but they said they're too busy playing hockey. I think they're lying. Called the only hardware store around to see about buying a snow blower and they're out. Might have another shipment in March. I think they're lying. Bob says I have to shovel or the city will have it done and bill me. I think he's lying.

December 22
Bob was right about a white Christmas because 13 more inches of the white shit fell today, and it's so cold, it probably won't melt till August. Took me 45 minutes to get all dressed up to go out to shovel and then I had to piss. By the time I got undressed, pissed and dressed again. I was too tired to shovel. Tried to hire Bob who has a plow on his truck for the rest of the winter, but he says he's too busy. I think the asshole is lying.

December 23
Only 2 inches of snow today. And it warmed up to 0. The wife wanted me to decorate the front of the house this morning. What is she, nuts?!! Why didn't she tell me to do that a month ago? She says she did but I think she's lying.

December 24
6 inches - Snow packed so hard by snowplow, I broke the shovel. Thought I was having a heart attack. If I ever catch the son of a bitch who drives that snow plow, I'll drag him through the snow by his balls and beat him to death with my broken shovel. I know he hides around the corner and waits for me to finish shoveling and then he comes down the street at a 100 miles an hour and throws snow all over where I've just been! Tonight the wife wanted me to sing Christmas carols with her and open our presents, but I was too busy watching for the damn snowplow.

December 25
Merry f#%&ing Christmas! 20 more inches of the damn slop tonight - Snowed in the idea of shoveling makes my blood boil. I hate the snow! Then the snowplow driver came by asking for a donation and I hit him over the head with my shovel. The wife says I have a bad attitude. I think she's a fricking idiot. If I have to watch "It's A Wonderful Life" one more time, I'm going to stuff her into the microwave.

December 26
Still snowed in. Why the hell did I ever move here? It was all HER idea. She's really getting on my nerves.

December 27
Temperature dropped to -30 and the pipes froze; plumber came after 14 hours of waiting for him, he only charged me $1,400 to replace all my pipes.

December 28
Warmed up to above -20. Still snowed in. The BITCH is driving me crazy!!!

December 29
10 more inches. Bob says I have to shovel the roof or it could cave in. That's the silliest thing I ever heard. How dumb does he think I am?

December 30
Roof caved in. I beat up the snow plow driver, and now he is suing me for a million dollars, not only for the beating I gave him, but also for trying to shove the broken snow shovel up his ass. The wife went home to her mother. Nine more inches predicted.

December 31
I set fire to what's left of the house. No more shoveling.

January 8
Feel so good. I just love those little white pills they keep giving me. Why am I tied to the bed?

 

If you were looking for a "Thank You" you could have come and cleared my driveway. I might have even bought you lunch because I'm such a great guy.

Dave

 

I feel sorry for Spokane ! WOW they got hit hard !

 

i hear about inches,how bout feet? spokane washingtons got something like 3 feet, and everyones freakin out, haha. ive lived up here(north id) all my life and all i can do is laugh when all the yuppies freak out. the first day of major snow, we got like 15-18 inches me and my friend took his minivan to go get gas for the plow truck, everyone thought we were crazy, well maybe we are.

 

plow truck??? is that for corn fields??????????

 

Were still getting hit! Suppost to get another 8-10 inches in the next couple days. I am really running out of places to put this crap!

 

Man I feel sorry for you all. I got out of Iowa as soon as I could because of the cold. I know that white sh*t isn't any fun. I got tired of frozen pipes, batterys, girls and icy roads. Had my 35 Ford pickup frozen to the ground one time. I hate the cold. We get a little of that stuff here in Tulsa but it goes away very fast. Ready for spring.

Like I told the kid, "Your music's not too loud, it just sucks and so does OKC!"

 

I love snow and wish we had some some this year, but not that much. It sucks hard if you are not prepared with a blower, plow, snow tires, chains, etc. Sorry for you guys that have lost stuff, especially that Impala; what a shame.

 

I just love the view this time of year.



Just Finished shoveling a house in north spokane behind costco. I easily had twice as much snow on my roofs in Athol.

 

Yep, still snowing and back to 0 degree weather. Oh boy

 

I'm supposed to deliver a truck to Eastern WA. The guy is pissed that I'm am hesitant to drive up from Sunny SO-CAL in all this crap. I'm seeing all bad news but he says it's all good. Is it media hype or should I really be scared to head up? I'm looking at laving Monday now up the 5. Thanks Jim
