    About 3” is all, but a 30 mph wind stacked it up in the driveway— it was wet and heavy shoveling — almost succumbed to multiple heart attacks, but the neighbor came over with his snow blower— other half owes him a plate of cookies and me a new snow blower which I intend to pick out tomorrow cause another storm is brewing on Sunday and I’m done with the heart attack thing

    I think your other half should have already bought one for you. Unless this is her endgame. You better keep an eye on her. I think she’s trying to go solo.

    Couldn’t handle that crowd— thinking that maybe chukar’n is in the forecast tomorrow— not a crowd on the chukar slopes

    Why wonder? Just take a surveyors transit down and set up at daylight, shoot a line just before supper and calculate the movement.
    Be short division too....
    Ones they used in the egg market NYC in 56/7, gave you plenty of time to rest while he trundled from your trailer down to the market store and back. Place so jammed up you parked and they carted them down like 20 or 30 cases at a time. Kept the side door locked or when you had unloaded the rear up aways, you would come up to this big empty on to the nose...

    I can’t believe you are 77 years old and still skiing. I’m 42 and need both knees replaced. Crazy world.

    Pro Tip— never wear a hoodie over your wool bibs when your shoveling snow and had chili dogs the night before — very difficult to eject from in the event of an emergency

    Serious.. Wife once told me: Your insurance premium went up a lot, with the additional coverage I added. We had just had the third child and wanted to
    Joey; It is all in the way you use the body parts as to how they are capable of responding, For example my pecker.....
