    I'll get the trailer and tools ready. Always enjoy an all expenses paid plus $ trip to Oklahoma.

    I'm not driving up there again. Dale can hire a chopper to get it out just before he cancels your ass.

    It was only -8º here this morning Ralph. Saturday it was +40º. We were going to move hay then but it was too soft to drive off of the gravel. Plenty hard now.

    Billy asked me this morning if they even had snow plows in Texas. I told him that Gary Drean and I were riding/sliding together before the seminar last year after the snow and we saw a plow truck. I told Gary at the time "That is likely the world's worst snowplow driver." since he only gets experience about every five years...

    A snow plow around here is usually a front end loader or motor grader. They didn't knock all the reflectors off the highway this year since they just skimmed some of the snow off the top of the ice.

    Hey Steve,

    The plow driver that SJ and I saw was driving as if he had just been called out of the local bar. While I admit I made a California turn into the hotel parking lot, I got away with it by carrying excess speed. The plow driver had neither of those excuses. Are you going to get rid of that white stuff for the seminar?

    Photo198.jpgPhoto182.jpgPhoto188.jpgwell no skis for the plane but we did take the snowboards with us to the top when checking the road conditions. the yardstick was yesterday afternoon and it still came down for a few more hours. the lawn chairs were protected by the house. cant imagine how deep some of the drifts might be. Steve there is 750ft house to road if you think you could get it shut down. this is grandlake 10 min north east of ok18
