Hi All!
Ok enough with this snow!
This was suppose to be the weekend I clean out the shed and garage, put all my snow plow parts and kids sleds in the shed for summer storage. I was also planning on pulling the TT out from the back driveway and moving my left over plows and sled trailer back there, looks like that's not going to happen! I guess the three day weekend coming up will be the next time for me to get it all done. Since we are not scrambling to get everything done before spring break this year, I guess I have some wiggle room to procrastinate.
So, since there is no MB trip this year we are trying to figure out when our first trip out will be? I suggested to Beth maybe a few day's at Normandy Farms during the school vacation, just to shake the cob webs out and get away from home, ( the four walls are moving in), lol. Anybody have any different suggestions? Is anyone heading out April 18th- 27th?

I had a lucky day on Thursday after driving by four fuel stations with prices ranging from $4.09 - $4.26 / gal the fifth station had it advertised at $3.99 / gal on the large sign. When I pulled to the pump it was $4.09 / gal, I said to Beth I guess that's what we're going to pay! I went up to pre pay and the attendant said "today is your lucky day, we close in five minuets, you get the fuel at the $3.99 /gal price, once you leave I have to reset the pumps to $4.09 / gal." So I got the last gallon of Diesel fuel in my area for under four bucks a gallon! I saved a whole three bucks! but it is certainly the principle of the matter, get'ten real tired of a certain Guy who lives on Pennsylvania Ave and his close buddies GOUGING us ! This is his last chance at profit taking and he's going to get all he can heading out the door! JMHO!

Hey Gerry
No 20 and out for a Massachusetts teacher! Best you can do is 35 years and 59 years of age anything less will reduce your well earned pensions drastically!
Now for a Massachusetts State legislature: six two year terms will get you full pension and 90% of your health insurance paid for the rest of your life! So they don't even have to hang around for the 20!
So please don't put us all in the same catagory, some of us are very dedicated to our occupations and work very hard for the average salary that we earn!

Car or Tractor? either way we're in the back of the line. Fuel prices are killing us. I will slap the next person that tells me truckers make good money. Just for fuel it cost $.83 a mile to run the truck.

Hi
I think it's time for the truckers to unite around all of Washington DC and cause a strong hold, litterally for 3-4 days and squeeze the leaders to reel in these high energy prices. You know a real big " Convoy"
Yes Sir Rubber Duck, we got us a Convoy!
