Sure thing just say the word and we will set up a time.

Will do. Whereabouts do you live? I travel out East of Leon quite a bit cutting wood on a friend's ranch. Kind of in-between Leon and Beaumont. I'd be happy to bring any of mine (or let you play with any if you came my way) if I have any that intrigue you.

Howdy all. I guess I lucked out on this storm. just a 1/4 inch of ice and about 3/4 inch of sleet and snow
 
just letting everyone know it does not help to call your electric company every hour and tell them you are out of power one time is plenty good. multiple calls just complicates things

Our snow landed in Ft. Smith. We have less now than we did. Weekend's snow landed here.......:)
 
Have a job tonight, or tomorrow. BUT I don't want to freeze to death.

Seriously.
 
We got about 8 or 9 inches I would say. Work shut down at noon yesterday. I called this morning boss said to get here when I could. Took me about an hour to shovel my car out. I made the 20 mile drive to work and the boss isn't even here. He lives 2 miles away. Production is shut down so only us office people are here. 4 out of 12 came to work. I had the farthest to drive. Now the software I use is jacked up so I have nothing to do. Glad I am getting paid to be here.
 
I'm just glad it didn't as bad as it could have don't know how much we got in inches but dreifts are 2 to 4 feet. I've got plenty of wood up. Just got done cleaning side walks and shoveling out drifts to get to the sheds.
 
I was expecting worse. I am ready for it to melt now so I can get to my wood pile to split the rest of what I need for the winter.
 
me and my brother cliffton went out to do driveways like we always do and everybody already had them done. Were warm got plenty of seasoned oak
 
You got more than us Steven,but we got a nice 3/4 of solid ice at the beginning of this storm.With the lows we're expecting,I don't think we'll have ice free roads for a while.I'm having to keep the chains on the truck so the wifey can get to work......
 
I guess my wife had to put the horses in the barn due to the cold and high winds,... which was fun because our barn is currently being rebuilt, due to tornado damage from last Sept,... Gotta love dealing with Insrance and Mortgage companies,...
 
Hey freehand, is that a 'rent a family?"

I had a friend that, even though he had a really good looking wife and decent kids, kept the "canned " picture that came with the frame for years on his desk. It was hilarious how people commented on what a nice family he had, and he wasn't even in the pic.

I am between Lawrence and KC so it is a little bit of a drive for you unless you are already comming up this way. I get down to your part of the state a couple times a year. We sell food at the Walnut Valley Festiaval in Winfield and at the Mulvane Old Settlers. I usualy have an evening free after we are done setting up. It wood be a good time to come run some saws. I have never tried an 066
