I call dibs on the RVT

This is my first winter with a newer 5HP 2 stage snow thrower. I did my drive, and both neighbors drive. The slush at the apron from the street plow was no problem.I kinda felt like that guy on the old Wagner power roller commercial, "do you have a driveway I can clear?"........

I did not measure the snow in the drive, but the snow is as high as my dog's um.....belly.

Man, so you have a nice ride home on 90, right next to the lake. You get the weather on both east and west of Cleveland.

You pick me up, then we will go......

Good to hear your work hours are back up. Get it while you can. Must mean that orders are up if plant 2 is working over time.

that sounds like fun. I kept a tow strap in my plow truck and would pull people out of the snow if they got stuck.

get to work, you are on day shift this week, I am working the night shift this week...

At least you will be warm...

I would say "as it should be", but Bratkar (Kelli) is out here too, so I won't.

hope you get the power back soon......do you have a fireplace for warmth/light?

Watching Ducati Desmo RR videos on youtube to pass the time. That bike ALMOST sounds like a SV, but much deeper

It is snowing a bit now, and it is the cold snow, which is not as good as the warm snow.

There is 2 or 3 millimeters of snow here in Bedford, but it just started snowing around 5PM

12:06 in Cleveland and nothing yet. Hopefully the other drivers will not make a mess of the drive home from work.

might be a chic, can see a slight outline of the new term "sweater-puppies"

I am all for being prepared, but the news will show people at the store buying bread and water. WTF? If needed for any weather, I have a generator, but the house is not wired. There was a summer rain storm that knocked out our power for 4 days. I ran an RV cord to the refridgerator for a few hours every day.

No snow yet here in Cleveland. How is the weather in Columbus? The weather guys are predicting a lot of snow.

Another issue that is often over looked is traveling for work in regards to state and city taxes. I have been told that you can count up the days you did not work in the city/state your business is in, and request a refund from that city/state you are currently paying. This of course would require detailed records. As I understand, instead of paying your city for 365 days worth of taxes, if you traveled for 30 days of that year, you can get a refund of the difference from what your city taxes would be, compared to what 30 days of taxes would be in the visiting city. Dang what a long sentance there. I have not tried this, nor do I even know where/ how to do this on a tax form. Last year was my first year traveling for my company. They are based in Euclid, with a city tax rate of 2.85%. So, if I went through the effort to keep track of how many days I was not working in Euclid compared to a city I was working in with a lower rate, say like 1.5%, I could request a refund from Euclid. But then, do I have to send a check to that visiting city i was actually working in on those days? These are the questions for a real tax preparer.

Bratkar and I will be there on Saturday. I just have to take her to City BBQ either before or after the show. Anybody up for a Cleveland caravan to C-bus?

IROC = Its Really Only a Camaro relax, I am Chevy fan

So next you will get an email stating you won a lottery, just send money for the processing fee and the prize is yours...........

The wife and I got registered in Hudson for April 20 and the following Sat and Sunday.Anybody else going to that class?

I read the rides posted at ADV rider occasionally. That is a great report. I would be freaked out riding that coastline/dune area. There were some strange looking trees. Good to know that you can find beer anywhere. I would like to go there and pick up one of those bikes, note the spelling on the seat:

I'll wait till later to ask about engine oil.....
