Finally Sharing A Pic of Pepe!

[TrailMaster]

If you can see him! Yep, we got a little snow overnight!

Been a light year thus far. While I sure wasn't complaining, I had that uneasy feeling that was going to change. It did.

We need the precipitation, but I'm really getting too old for this. I have 1/3 of our drive and one of our three vehicles dug out so far, and I'm plum tuckered! Yes, I dug out the Maverick first. The others can surely wait until tomorrow. More snow expected tomorrow and next week. Glad it's a holiday weekend.

Life in the Rockies! This is why AWD FX4 was important to me. Choose your weapon according to your needs.

I'm right there with you on the snow removal sentiment. I thank my lucky stars our vehicles are in a garage, but the driveway and sidewalks don't clear themselves.

And the neighborhood kids never come around asking to shovel for some pocket money. I seem to remember that was a thing when I was a kid.

I have a big circle driveway, and Melvin comes and plows it with his big truck. If you have the option, get yourself a Melvin.....

Are there actually kids in your neighborhood?

This is an unfortunate outcome of the housing affordability crisis.

Our son just flew back to northern Michigan from visiting us in South Carolina. They got about 15" of new snow from the storm and lake effect. Don't miss the snow at all in retirement

I feel your pain(s). Bought my Maverick because with the back issues I have it was both easier and safer to get in/out of.
Of course, we get a storm here this weekend and snowblower decides it wants to sit this one out. Twenty years ago it would have just been a nuisance, but now it's literally a pain in the....

My wife turns 62 tomorrow and retires in June. I have to continue to work until we both can get on Medicare.

She's been rubbing it in for months now.

So...........I'm thinking she can do the shoveling next winter. Haa!

Definitely! This stuff is wet and heavy too. Another day on the drive, then digging a trail to the woodpile. Roof is needing to be shoveled too.

Chronic back issues here as well, and hips are acting up a bit too lately. Was even wearing my big velcro back stabilizer belt today.

As Jeff D said, neighborhood kids wanting to earn some spending money are non-existent nowadays. I remember years ago they used to even advertise in the classifieds but no more.

Anyway, it is a dilemma. With my drive it is literally difficult to find a place to put the snow when we get this much.

This weather is why I went full Tremor!!

I was hoping Pepe was your truck

 

[OneAlienBoi]

Imagine this weather, and some dullard is still riding your bumper in a lifted wrangler wanting you to speed in a blizzard, wait... that's just life in Utah.

Don't blame the kids. Blame the patents that have them programmed to within an inch of their lives, with zero free time to be entrepreneurial, let alone to just be kids.
