The best part is that it was 47 degrees all day! So the last layer of snow is nice and mushy, and the dirt driveway is WAY soft.... [thumbsdown]
We've been doing a mix of winter and mud season since mid February. [roll]

I stop this time of year also...for a few inches.

Feet still need to be dealt with.  :-\

Same here.  Unfortunately I'm going to have to deal with it today.   >:(

I like that guy.

Sounds a lot like Corey.

Snowed last night...about an inch.

Just a little more liquid, when it melts, to add to the mud. [thumbsup]

The lady that watched Zip the other night 'almost' got stuck in our driveway.

My driveway is paved but we also park on the other side of the house.
Before I put stone down there, I've gotten stuck  :P

My driveway is dirt,  and flat. The the snow will turn it to mud as soon as it melts.

The only positive is that the ground is thawed, so should drain & dry quickly...
Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty, and the pigs like it...

Our road is dirt. The plows killed it this year. I need to buy some sort of tractor attachment and level it out.

More snow today.

It can stop anytime.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

It wasn't the plows...

Winter killed your road. ;)

The town will fix it.

IT'S SNOWING!!!

A good wet snow! [thumbsup]
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
