Snow Prep 2012
With 3 to 5 snow in the forecast by Thursday, wrapped up most outside matters and made way in the garden shed for the last lawnmower having awaited it's over winter splash of fresh stabilized fuel. And likewise to similar ends pulled cords on the snowblowers to great delight when both fired with relative ease, one of which the Ariens ST-504 heading for retirement after 27 years of yeoman service. Not sure what I'll do with it. Meanwhile the smaller single stage will take care of this dusting as the new Ariens Sno-Tek 24 is still in the box.

Hey! Everybody checks in on the hour. Dare to be different!
