For all this snow.



I have to start up the blower..



Strap on something tough.



That is why they call it tool watch.

Better you than me!
I used to have a blower like that growing up. We had an enormous driveway to clear. Fortunately we only needed it a few times a year. Now my parents use a plow service.

What the heck is all that white stuff all over everything? And what on earth is that yellow contraption, some kind of new fangled lawn mower??

Jocke. Enjoy your winter wonderland!

As long as they are just PICs and that white stuff stays far away from me, then I'll be just fine.

This post makes me wonder. We know about certain Rolex's and their ability to be x amount underwater without becoming damaged. But, what about their ability to withstand cold, like crazy freezing cold? Anyone know.

Easy for you to say that because you experienced the last NYC blizzard from your stroller.

Ahh... Gotcha

So if you kept the snow from last year.. Would that make it "vintage snow" this year?
