My yard does pale in comparison to these guys just down the road from me but many strangers stop and say they like mine better simply on account of not being seizure inducing, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Well it looks like my concern was mostly unwarranted. I'll go out and check in a few minutes but eyeballing it gives me ~3". edit: My eyeballs are old and no good - The ruler says 1.8" on elevated surfaces and 1" or less over slush on the lawn. The ground is super warm after the last few days and this stuff is turning to mush in a hurry. Instant compaction too, especially in the sun.

That last band packed quite a punch and I ended up with 3" even. Super pretty stuff for Christmas morning but like you say, the wind is already starting to knock it down from trees. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a live version of that song where he tells a story of playing this in Europe and German soldiers showing up to his show just to hear this song, pretty cool. Merry Christmas to you and yours and everyone else who may read this! A nice squall moving through here now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 The wind is here and the temp has started to drop. When I cleaned the cars off this morning the bottom 1/2" was a pretty solid crust, once it hardens up as it gets cold it's going to be a real bear to remove. Go out and clean your cars off now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Looks like I dropped to a little under 9* but that's it. Hoping to crack 0 at least once in this cold period. Either way, it's fkn cold out there man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravitylover Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Tonight looks like a better chance for most of us to crack 0. Tomorrow looks like it's gonna be a mite chilly I'll tell ya, my clutch was an unhappy car part this morning for the first mile or so until everything warmed up. I wish I had a garage On the upside, there is definitely something to be said for cold, dry pavement and the right tires on a good sports car I had all sortsa fun last night and this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
