Yeah, we were back packing with out tents. It made for some interesting sights when we sprayed ourselves with bug spray when entering and leaving our sleeping bags and dressing and undressing. Taking care of body functions and bathing in the river were major operations. I do have pictures, but they would be censored. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lynnmor 7,307 #35 Posted February 25, 2022 Everything covered with ice this morning and large pine branches broken. By noon, nearly all ice is gone and this little guy celebrated: 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 38,182 #37 Posted February 25, 2022 Quite a racket when the sun came out and the wind kicked up. The ice came down with a fury on the metal roofs. Two trees came down into the field that I will need to clean up before my Amish farmer begins to plow. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many times this winter we have been told that we would be getting multiple inches of snow. Never seem to get very much though. Same in Minnesota Dan….my snowblower is getting a little dust buildup on it… 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,538 #39 Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) @Achto @Terry M I'll tell ya what. I'm a nice guy. I like to be helpful. Now I'm planning on getting up tomorrow about 5 or 6 am like usual and heading outside around 7 or so to do some snowblowerering. If one o' you gets here before then I'll not only let you do all the ❄️❄️❄️ Snow removal, I'll even supply a surly attitude and fairly decent ☕☕☕ coffee. Don't be lollygagging about though.
