pfrederi 17,663 #2 Posted February 12, 2020 Haven't even started the snow blower horse (did't use it last year either). plowed a couple time this year only once because it was really necessary. This is about the 3rd round of mud season... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,783 #4 Posted February 12, 2020 It hasn’t been a very harsh winter, but I too am looking forward to spring. I hope it stays cold long enough to get all the starches in the sugar bush turned to sugars and maple season is a hit... but I’m ready to jump to that and get more shop time with open doors! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rjg854 11,349 #5 Posted February 12, 2020 Yes, in a way looking forward to spring, haven't gotten a lot of seat time this winter. Hopefully spring will be dry enough to be able to get out in the lawn. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 38,021 #9 Posted February 12, 2020 Well, selling my snow blower did not trigger any blizzard, just the opposite. I only plowed one snow this year and I had to hurry before it melted. We may have missed winter. I am concerned for the fruit trees...I can see some budding. My Amish neighbor has been plowing since Christmas. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stepney 2,325 #10 Posted February 12, 2020 I sure can't wait.. already got WH projects going getting ready for mowing time. Snowmobile season was a joke here. So rough I threw a ski off in a mogul.. Not much else you can do this time of year I guess. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racinbob 11,040 #15 Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) While the move last fall was only about an hours drive from where we were the average annual snowfall drops to about 1/2 of what South Bend gets due to lake effect. Still, I've been waiting for some snow so I can play with my new set up on the 250' blacktop drive. Nope, hasn't happened. Every time they predict a system snow it seems to miss us and we've only barely covered the grass a couple times then that melts. Another one is predicted for tonight and tomorrow so just maybe...…………………..…….…………. (snow dance) I WANNA PLAY!!

stevasaurus 22,706 #16 Posted February 12, 2020 I just needed to get out yesterday for a change. We went to Top Golf and hit 80 golf balls from their top level (3 stories up). Yes, after hitting golf balls for 2 hours, I'm ready to hit the links. Check out the web site. https://topgolf.com/us/schaumburg/ 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,981 #18 Posted February 14, 2020 Looking for spring over here as well. Not had any snow down here on the plain, but the fells and high ground behind us have had plenty. Mainly been a wet and windy winter. Tractors have not been out for three months. Grass has started to grow but the ground is that wet that I daren't even try to mow. I'd just leave tyre tracks everywhere. This morning the wind has got up again heralding the arrival of Storm Dennis. So another rough weekend ahead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
