    Hello all .
    Just thought i would show you what we woke up to on the day after Christmas.
    Really an unwelcome site as This is the most snow we have had here in all the
    years we have been living here .

    The tractor broke down at work and i was unable to use it to plow our walks, we had to shovel all the walks mostly by hand . We did use a small snow blower but it was mostly useless.............

    15" in the 26th and 2 other 3" snows on top of it since

    I Know some of you norther guys get more but
    THIS WAS MORE THAN I COULD STAND ..... Bah - Humbug :fugly:

    Wow Bruce you guyz are in hibernation mode there! Thats a lot of snow my friend. I know what you mean about being over it though its very pretty to look at but it gets old very quick. We had better get used to it though, this being the start of winter!
    You need to get some skis on a few of your fleet :doubleup:
    BTW Cute puppies. They seem to enjoy the snow :D
    Thanks for sharing
    Mark and Trish

    Oh, Bruce, I so envy you...NOT. I'm for in Toronto for a short time, going back home on Tuesday. We had here 4" of snow the other day and I haven't gone out of the house for days in protest. :D If we would have gotten 15" of snow I would have filed a law suit. I'm just not sure against whom. :lol:

    Not often I post on this or any forums for that matter But I feel you pain EWO just don't want any of that stuff around my way, but I got the blower ready and waiting. Still when alls said and done it does look nice.

    Here's two vids from a test I went on this fall.

    9 hrs a day 7days a week for 5 wks. Not a bad way to make a living. Plane flies itself just had to launch it and land it, put new battery in and go again.

    Pictures don't even come close to doing it justice.....
    Here for work, and got to walk to work... never did that before... Kinda cool. Also passed a Kindergarten Elementary school on the way. Little kids walking to school with their reflective vests (it was darkish, and I didn't want to be considered a stalker and take pics of them) all walking to school.... without adults around. Something you would NEVER see at home.
    And work is next door to a brewery.... Not too shabby :)

    More pics here: https://www.icloud.com/photostream/#A6JtdOXmzxn8r Or send me your apple ID if you want the photostream as the pics are MUCH higher quality and you can see the comments, which describe each pic.

    Later
    Dave

    Looks like you have a great setup there, with walking to work and a pub next door :D
    I have to ask, did you ski while you were there?
    Nice job on the pics Dave keep'em going. I love these little glimpse into other parts of the world :good:

    Yea I could get real used to it.:) We never did stop at the pub though :-(
    No I didn't ski...Never learned. Of course just about everyone here does.
    Every time I go somewhere I try and immerse myself in the local culture; this trip was particularly nice, and easy to do so, as I have local guides whom I know real well from work.
