I was just watching some news station from Tahoe, they said a few people die when the snow gets this deep from roof falls. They have tunnels into their front door so not hard to imagine.
I have both, not crazy about the BP blower, maybe it's undersized, like to have an electric or battery powered too if they have good ones now. I agree, the one's on wheel suck, gonna put it on craigslist this week see if I can get some money back.
I have more than sticks, I have small trees and large branches. What do you have for a leaf blower? Mine died last weekend, my brother has one with the power of a jet engine, may borrow his or buy one myself.
Went to Home Depot yesterday to plan my spring lawn rescue. Need some seed for bald spots and have the tractor in for a tune up. Just need to pick up fertilizer.
We lost a cat, we assume it was coyotes, not sure but it's a good bet since we hear them all the time in the woods across the street. I live across from over 200 acres of woods, there's all kinds of wildlife there.
Still never used my snow blower this year, the one storm I wanted to use it the carb was gummed up, got it fixed and thought I had a shot last week. Just have ethanol free gas in it now so I don't have to worry about the carb this year. I've had it since the end of 2021 and have used it once.
A baby coyote crossed the road in front of me one day, had a big adult cross the road in front of me too. There seems to be a lot of coyotes in my area lately. Some nights the pack howls.
I know turkeys eat ticks and we used to have a flock in our yard every night for a few years, last year they stopped showing up so maybe they found better grounds.
In the Halloween storm with all the trees snapping we didn't lose power until the very end when a pine tree branch across the street from my house fell on the wires and knocked 5 of us out, just the homes on my dead-end street, we were among the last to get power back since it was only 5 homes.
She had a house in Thompson in the boonies, forget who her husband was at the time but they split. Brian Denehy used to stop at the four corners for drinks when he was in town.
