Not I.

I am in central Ohio and have too many projects on the table to run south. The dozer is still in the assemble phase and I have a 1995 Honda Civic needing an engine swap. Too cold to do much.

Like my dad always said, have plenty of party materials on hand for those cold blistery days.

Not I, but my friends, proving that they are way smarter than me are. The one is in your neck of the woods for the winter.

Rick.....feeding cows and blowing snow in west central Mn (bout 90 miles from Lavoy)

No snow at this time of the year temps in the high 30 C, high winds and fire.

Some rain would be welcome

No snowbirds here, the wife and I are a couple of those twisted people that actually like winter and snow. If we ever move it will be north.

Terry I got 5 feet of that dam white stuff. I have been pushin loadin and shuvin the stuff for three weeks now .I would like to go south but it isn't happining any time soon .It hasn't been cold just below freezing but just enough for lake effect and untill Lake Huron is frozen we will get dumped on daily.One of our four lane highways was closed for four days just south of us .I have two excavators the next county east and about 2 inches of snow over there.We can dig in that as a little frost is no problem for a 270 or a 330 Deere's .I like the Idea of keeping enough emergency kit around for several days of storm though .I am prepaired for the big storm at this point as long as it dosn't happen over newyears .Digitup.

Five feet may be too much of a good thing. Winter for me is some down time. Spend more time with the wife, yes after twentyfive years I still enjoy her company. We ski alot if snow conditions allow, no snowmobiles, I spend enough time around machinery need to get away from it.

I have a real shop to work on equipment now so lot of maintenace and repair work to do. Adapting a grader blade to fit on the backhoe and new tranny and cab for one of the dumps.

Will do some logging later in the winter. But generally a chance to relax, still have things to do but there isn't so much pressure.
