I am a snowplow operator and am very tired of snow and cold. Just bought me a new DFX and can't even use it. Driving me crazy.

I am so tired of the snow and ice I am ready to head back to Texas. LOL. I am just over the border in crown point and I have never seen so much snow in all my life. Last weekend when I was at the Resorts casino in East Chicago I noticed a beach by the boat. Has anyone ever detected it that post here. I am thinking of going over there either tomorrow (highs in the 30s) or next Sunday. Anyone that has had any luck there or would like to go Pm me. TMAN...

I am sick of it all. The last storm had me stuck in for two days. They finally brought the roadgrader in to plow us out. The bad thing is that I live in town. Now I have over six foot drifts in my front yard. So I think I should be seeing green grass around July.....

I know this was a post from last winter, but I was not ready for winter yet.

:(I'm depressed because of this early Winter. We have had snow and cold since the start of December,which has been one of my most productive months in past years. I'm thinking of hopping into the truck and driving South until I find thawed ground. Come on Spring!!!
