That is what I told them today when I left at noon, but then I never work a full friday anymore as I am maxed out with 320 hours of vac and I have to take some every week so I dont give it back to them :D

I always knew Texas was dusty, but I thought the dust was brown?:confused:

Brian, that guy in the shorts was just not right, somehow shorts, motorcycles and snow just dont mix :eek:

the winter of 81/82 I was in Ks and a mc was my only transportation for the winter, I went through several pairs of boots skiing my bike around

Steve, that looks like fun, is it wired for electrics?? :D


:fire4: :java1:

[Ironheadziggy76]

Yep, it has a 12 volt accessory plug straight from Honda. Now I just need some clothes to plug in.

Well I just cleared two feet of DUSTING out of my driveway. We only got about 6-8 inches, but the wind swirls between my neighbor's house and my garage and causes the snow to drift in front of my garage.

I hear ya Mac.... it's coming my way and I'm planning on getting quite cranky because of it. :mad:

[motomac]

It started here at 10:00 this morning and finally stopped at about 5:30 and is supposed to crank back up tonight for another few inches!!!

[Ironheadziggy76]

It started back up a couple of hours ago here, we are suppose to get another 5 or 6 inches by tomorrow afternoon. May be enough to have some fun on the quad.

I grew up in Ks and what happened there was all the snow from the fileds blew 3 to 4 ft drifts on the roads but you could still see the green winter wheat in the fields. If it had been below freezing for a while you could go cross country but if the ground had not frozen good you could realey bury a 4x4, it took a road grader to pull my CJ 5 out once but after 3 days it froze in, wish I had a picture of the frozen mud around the tires and stuck to the bottom :D

I went across KS in April one year and the snow was drifted across the Interstate!!!
