Had Carpal Tunnel surgery yesterday.  Ran up the highway and caught some ice races.  Haven't done it in years. Not many cars but a good show.  Good weather. 

This old girl is a beast in the snow. Once you get her cold blooded v8 fired off.

It's wood. Before the fan took a dump around Thanksgiving, it would cook you out. You can load it up and shut the air down and walk away for about 5 hrs. Not super efficient. Going to have to rip out a bunch of stone to fix it. Wood Fire place/insert on the entry level is pretty big. Has a fan...

Been snowing, blowing and cold as hell here the last 4 days. It's actually started to warm up.  It was -15 an hr ago.🥶 That's without the wind chill. West of Denver.

Does anyone try to make sure their paddles scoops are clocked? Wondering if it would make the ride better or worse on the twins Raptor 250s. I'd imagine it wouldn't be noticeable in a larger machine, sxs or a rail.

Tinkering on the kids and wifes machines. Got to get a parts list going for our Glamis spring break trip. Clearing snow and keeping the wood stove raging. Supposed to be a colder than crap the next 3 days. -8 this morning + 40mph winds. Brrrr.

Chilled yesterday.  Recovering from Trigger Finger surgery. Plowing today.  Another white Christmas here. Mother and brother in law coming for dinner this evening.  Dinner with my family tomorrow. 

I've been rolling a 2wd work van most days for 23 years. We are at about 8800'. Just west of Denver. Im heavy with good studded snow tires being key. Or fresh A/T with a snow rating. Have ⛓️ if needed. Most have no idea how to drive in the snow or be prepared. Time to go knock on some wood...

Have to work all weekend.  Next day off isn't until 12/22 Got about 10" of snow. Was a fun drive home last night. Chaining up the van and heading to work.  Not happy.

Processing some firewood. Daughters enjoying smashing stumps. She's getting the hang of it. It was 36 degrees out and she was sweating her 13 year old but off. Her and her twin brother split, moved and stacked about 3/4 of a cord. Figured out why my damn TH marker lights and some tail lights...

I went through this same dilemma. My twins went from pretty seriously modded lt80s to Raptor 250s.  The raptors have been bullet proof for a couple seasons now.  We've had a few blasters in camp over the years. Seems like they all stick once the rider starts really hammering them as they get...

Kids had their middle school Halloween dance last night. My son and wife made his costume out of foam. Kids did a 5k run/walk through an old cemetery this morning.  Wife and I handed out candy and cheered everyone on.  Was 16 degrees and spitting snow. Froze my butt off. Not ready for this...

Up at 4a.m. this morning. Ugh.  Daughters got a cross country race today.  Heading over to a buddies later to get a welding lesson. Drink some beers. Tinkering on the toy hauler tomorrow. 

Rad. 

This thing was hauling butt.

Daughter had a cross country race yesterday.  50th out of 271 girls.  Killing it for her 1st season.  Always top 20%. 1st on her team.  Working on my TH water tank braces this morning. Going to go check on my pops and do some honey does for my mother in law this afternoon.

Came out this morning to start chores to find this. Guess im doing a water pump in the work van today! Always something!

Rockies game today. Bark in the park deal. Wife, kids and the mutz had fun. I trucking hate downtown Denver.

That's the Plowmando. 73 Jeepster Commando.  304 auto. It's been a plow truck since the early 80s. I rescued it from going to the junk yard 4 or so years ago. Interior is 100% original and in killer complete shape. The body is pretty much hammered.  Considering cutting it up and building it...
