Looking Forward To Snow
Looks like we will be out of work by Thanksgiving. I figured we would go until Christmas but a builder has decided to hold off on small commercial building & spec house.
It has been 15 years since we haven't worked at least until Christmas. There hasn't been much winter work besides plowing the last couple years. I've got to figure a way to drum up more work for next year. I don't think we can handle another year like this one. Looks like there will be plenty of time for repairs. After turkey day bring on the snow. |

Upchuck!
It took all the personal restraint I could muster to not push the "Vaporize This Post" button.

Re: Looking Forward To Snow
Yep, I'm with Nick.
I hate snow, hate plowing it. Just hate it! Maybe one day......I'll have enough money that I can sit home and just look at it from a warm chair next to the fireplace. But till then.....I hate it.

Re: Looking Forward To Snow
yeah, not a thing MORE fun in the world...than be laying on your back replacing a hydraulic hose in a target parking lot at 3 a.m. at -25 degrees F....

Re: Looking Forward To Snow
That sounds like a good option......can you finance that for me?
 I'm a bit short on cash lately. |
