    I really don't want to think about it this close to bed time. However I have had my fair share of both lodge in that region of my body. Sledding is hazardous and going to the beach can be too. At least beach sand doesn't stick to the manly hairs in that area. :slap:

    The owner says they only get wood ticks. He picks them from his Aussie Blue sheep herding dog. Nice dog too.:thumbs2:

    Yeah! Even the owner wouldn't follow me around! He stayed in his warm 4WD Jeep Wagoneer (mint condition).

    Amazing what longjohns can do. :rofl2:

    He forgot that snow melts in warm places! :rofl2:

    Hey, it was only -9c in Brandon when I got there, and -6c when I left at 5:30 PM, but that Prairie wind was a beach! 40 to 70 KPH!

    Andy is a true friend all around......

    1.... he refused to go to begin with because there is 55 feet of snow, yet he let let you go alone....only a true friend would do that;)

    2.... He came and rescued you after #1 (Only a true friend would do that).....and I'm sure on the way home all he said in the car to you was......

    Its true, Andy doesn't say much most of the time, but his intelligent grunts are deafening!:rofl2:

    Actually, I debriefed him on the new Parts haven! Parts he wants, parts that some of those gorgeous museum pieces have for us. I ain't saying any more about it. Our secret cache. :lolup:

    Anybody never see SNOW?!?!

    The wife wanted some pics of her for the family in Monterrey, MX today, since our area is warming up, starting today to -7C. And Andy came over yesterday to scope out my yard (AKA why I can't get the Zephyr in my own yard). So I took some pics with and without HERSELF,:bowdown:

    Its in there somewhere

    From the trash bins, over the car, to the shed, up to the door knob!

    No Ice Dams, much!

    Snow banks, now called Wind Rows, in front of the house.
