The snow dump we got Sunday and Monday has precluded me getting to the PO. We are supposed to get another dump tonight through Thursday. Don't worry, I haven't forgotten. The roads are just nasty. Was finally able to make a run to the store today and while it wasn't too bad it was a bit slick and required a lot of attention. Worst was walking in the deep unconsolidated and compacted snow.
I cursed myself for not putting new tires on my Forrester. They are getting tread bare.

I fully understand, since I am crabby, tense, argumentative and an all-around pain right now because I am, essentially, "snowbound" as well. Just take care of yourself and deal with the current problems, relax as much as you can, catch up on your reading, etc. Everything else can wait, dude. Deal with the important stuff. The rest will get there whenever it gets there. Smile more than you have to and try to keep it all in perspective.
As Red Green used to say, signing off his old show, "Keep your stick on the ice. Remember, I'm pulling for you. We're all in this together." God knows there's enough ice for everyone! :^)

Not in any hurry. I don't do winter camping. Most important right now is for you to stay safe.

Particularly appropriate for me since I've been swinging a hammer all my life, I'm one of those Backpackers, XC skiers, and according to her 'can fix anything'
But LORD has duct tape gone up in price in the last couple of years................

My computer has died. Just seems like one thing after another.
