I got fed up with having it almost every day for two weeks and so left and went spend some time with my true love, Sirena in Berkeley. I stayed 5 days, spent 3 days working on her and 2 days on the bay playing with her. It was wonderful.  Sunday it was mid 70's on the bay. I even got a little burn on my bod.  Talked to the wife and she said the snow was almost melted and day temps were in the mid 40's and she needed me to take her to the Dentist on Wednesday.  So flew home Monday evening.  Yesterday I took her to the Dentist where she spend 3 hours in the chair and $4700 to get out of it.  By the time I got her home and made a run to the Bank it was putting down that white poop again.  Had a power outage for about an hour and a half about 6:30, it's still snowing...watched TV for an hour and a half, lost power again, it's still snowing...went to bed....Got up at 6:00, lighted candles, it's cold in the house, so went out and got a propane space heater and brought it in....it finally quite shitting the white poop but it's almost knee deep in the poop,,,actually about 10-12 inches.  The forecast was for 1-4".....Ran the snow machine for an hour and a half..and finally get to check on you guys....Why in the heck did I ever come to this place to begin with?????  I gotta be retarded....I'm still here....I told my wife
"never again, not another winter" last year.  She is the only thing that keeps me here and that's wearing pretty thin.  The problem is good ones are hard to find....I had 3 that didn't work out before her and I doubt if I could find another even half that good...."I will not spend another winter
in this place."........."I will not spend another winter in this place.".......OK, I've vented, guess I'll go out to the shop and work on my new Custom Triton Trailer...

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  -Mark Twain
