It is cold outside and it is raining. I just watched a fishing DVD and now
I have fishing fever really bad. If I went out in my Boston Whaler in this
weather I would freeze my a** off. Whalers are definitely a summer time
boat.
Aspirins don't work for fishing fever. I think the only known cure is to
go fishing. :) James

South Carolina. The forecast is rain tonight and all day tomorrow, then
turning colder on Sunday. Monday is go back to work day.

They need to make a winter time boat were you can sit in a warm cabin and
fish from inside the cabin. Just getting out of the wind would help a lot.

Poor baby.

15 inches of snow predicated here tonight through Sunday morning with
blizzard conditions.
Mrs. E. leaving for Norfolk this morning. I am staying to ride out the
storm, plow the driveway, then drive to Norfolk myself next week to deliver
a Harley Fatboy.

We were, I thought, supposed to have snow on the ground this morning, but
there's none there yet.

Maybe I should go shovel the driveway now and get a head start on it?

They do, it's called a Grand Banks Eastbay. It's even got a rod holder,
although this fool is using it to hold a flag.

That is a rich man's boat and I am not rich. I am 100% debt free and I
live comfortably but I don't consider myself rich (not money wise). My
children and grand children get most of my money.

The weather is so lousy I may just go shopping. I was thinking about going
to the Bass Pro shop in Myrtle Beach. A new spinning combo and a few lures
would help my fishing fever, right? James

I am watching the last of the fog burn off, to be a 70 degree day. Going to
pressure wash the back wall, so I can paint it before the Trex for the deck

DC is supposed to get only 8-12 inches. It's sticking to the trees now, so
tomorrow should be pretty. Fixed a big pot of stew, got the fire going,

I have a JD tractor with a loader bucket, but it's a pain to clear the
driveway because you can't plow the snow to one side. You have to plow a
big pile of snow, then stop and pick it up with the loader and dump it off
to the side. I ordered a plow attachment, but it won't be in until the
middle of next week - too late for this storm. My driveway is long ....
comes in from the road, divides to go both ways around the horse barn and up
to the house. Total of about 1600-1800 feet by 15-20 feet wide I would
guess, maybe more. That's a lot of snow to move if there is close to 2 feet
of it.

You need a two stage blower, not a plow. A big one. Or a blower and a
plow. And a jeep with chains.


Actually, when I bought the tractor I also bought a big ass snow blower for
it that is powered off of the front PTO. I used it once. It is such a pain
in the rear to remove the loader bucket and hook up the snow blower
attachment that it just isn't worth it. The rear attachments (back hoe,
bush hog, etc. are relatively easy to change, but the loader isn't. I use
the loader all the time for lifting anything heavy, so leaving the blower on
for the winter really isn't an option. The blower was a mistake.
