Checking out the ice... Little drone action

Finally got my son to ride the sled on his own & he loved it.

It looks like you plow snow with your tractor. Banks are too high for your truck. Nothing like that here, yet.

Skid loader works well
Expecting another 4-10” of the white stuff this weekend.

Please keep anything over 4" down there, I'm a little beat up to deal with the possibility of the 8" we're forecast for

While cleaning/rearranging the basement to hammer out the on-hold projects I was working on in the basement, I figured I'd break out the games for the next time the grandkids are over. Still have to get my Time Pilot out, but it was time to stop for a cigar and a few beers, and to test out this one... verification purposes only, y'see, not because I'm screwing around and putting off work on the basement... Yeah, that's the ticket!

Last one ! No broken or stuck plugs, it's back together and starts on the first revolution!

That info is for folks who moved here recently. If you've lived here for any length of time, you've got enough to tide you over long enough that you don't care that you're out of milk & bread ?

Bitters and oranges, now that's a different story. A man without an Old Fashioned...is he really a man at all?

@drewkaree agree on the stocking up guidelines - we are 12 miles south of the WI line and expecting our share of snow but have about 10 liters of barrels aging cocktails and plenty of other liquor to get us through. Sorry no old fashion’s being aged - plenty of manhattans Diamondbacks and Boulevardiers though. Lots of bitters to choose from so I can always mix up an Old Fashion if needed
@Babin Farms - wish WI would keep this storm though!

Can’t go boating so built a pair of “inside out” barrel tables - kind of a hybrid - wine barrel staves with whiskey barrel tops

 

[swatski]

We got the boat!
Well, it will be couple months before actual delivery as she still needs bottom painted, and options installed - radar, suspension chair, windlass, etc.
More pics of the boat in the "moving to the dark side" thread.

Just rain so far for us. Sure is making a mess of things though.

 

[PeterB]

@swatski wishing you calm seas and plentiful bounty as you explore the North Atlantic with your new boat!
And you stayed with Yamaha!

With temps in the 60's and the sun out for the first time in a while. I took advantage of the time at home and reasonable nice weather in the coming week to wash the trucks. I didn't take any pics while I was working because the phone was plugged into the garage stereo playing tunes. I did get a post pic, and after shower and supper, to share with ya'll.

I got a Chemical Guys foam cannon for Christmas and this was my second time using it. Was able to do both trucks with one bottle for the cannon with a little left over. The whole process is so easy and fun. With the gusty winds we had today I had to time my cannon spraying just right or I was gonna be covered in snow foam. Oh and i almost forgot, i was in shorts, tshirt and flip flops doing this and it's January 30th. The weather is one of the many things we love about Texas in the winter.

Here is Lake Tahoe and just picked up this fee sheet from the local marina. The fees have increased dramatically since the last time I checked 5 years or so ago when I could have rented a 20 year old 18’ bow rider for just $650 a day (actually 8 hours). Now I’d be fortunate to rent a paddle board here. One thing is certain, regardless of the season, I’d have to rent a wet suit as well.

Note the cost per day to rent a 24’ twin engine boat with a sports tower.

All of this snow and up to 14" expected from a new storm. The 2 ski resorts that we ski are 100% open, best ski conditions in years and I'm down and out for a while recovering from pancreatitis. At least the wife and daughter are having fun.

Just finished a snowmobile tour with my wife near South Lake Tahoe. A lot rougher than I remember but still, Good stuff!

That looks like a blast!!! I put on 85 miles on my sled today but my scenery was empty corn fields.

Went out to get the mail, turned around to see a great shot worth taking a pic
