I could go on and on. Thanks for listening! It sure helps to have a place to go to rant, where people understand you!

What doesn’t kill you will make you stronger. I must have said that to myself a half dozen times on my way in this morning. The conditions here are not as bad as what you have but it snowed last night and I beat the plows out. As long as I stayed in the fresh snow the front wheel tracked nicely but as soon as I had to cross or go with car tracks, it was a struggle to go in a straight line. Came close to putting it down more then once.
