    Default Bring it on!

    Good advice GG. We're seriously hoping for several big, historic level snowstorms over the next six weeks. It would be okay to get 6 feet like we had in when, 2003? when it buried the truck to the roof top. We cleared the driveway by hand shoveling 3 days before the state opened the highway. Now I have a snowthrower.

    It's terribly shy on snowpack this year. I was scanning through photos I took in 2017 when we had three times the snow that we do now. And after the historic fires that forced us to evacuate last October, most all the mountain folk here want as much water we can get in the drainages before summer. Bring it on, we're ready.

    Ha! I had a similar experience. Took me 2 days to just dig out the driveway, $300 to get a guy to bulldoze the 200 yards of unmaintained road, and 9 days before the maintained road was cleared. Got a snowblower that summer. Got quite a workout.
