If only I still had that picture of the 36" on my old driveway to post here...

. But yeah, solid water dust is heavy.

I don't even bother clearing anything under 6 inches. That is just drive through snow.

Depends, if it is going to thaw and refreeze then it might be worth doing.

Last night I learned that Costco Irish Cream on the rocks is 95% as good as Bailey's, and 95% less expensive.

They actually make some quality wine boxes these days. They are pretty nice for everyday wines. The bags collapse, so no air in the wine, so they stay good for a long while. I also like the canned wine. Perfect size for dinner. Cuts down on opening a bottle, having a glass with a steak, then the open bottle sits on the counter too long. And the can of champagne is perfect for a couple mimosas with breakfast.

Reminds me of an old guy that used to come in to the dive bar in San Jose. He liked really cheap box white wine, so he would buy a box to keep at the bar. He would come in, have them serve him a glass of the cheap wine he bought, then he would buy the bar a round, then leave.

They even make a canned sangria that is great on ice with some street tacos. Very refreshing.

TIL about Kenter Shackles.
I have found a patent page but no history of the invention.

Gas is 70-80 cents a gallon cheaper here and all the gas comes from the same refinery.
Easy choice for me.
