Please pass on the greetings at least.

No, that was just my daily drive home from the city.

Fargo was another story, highway was pure ice for the first hour of that drive. Glad it cleared up after about 30 miles as if the whole journey was that slow it wasn't happening in one night.

Thats how I-94 gets out @cuinrearview way at least twice a winter.
More and more often now they just shut it down west of Paw Paw when the lake effect machine fires up. I was over there on Black Friday buying a lot of saws. Big wreck had it shut down half the day. It's as bad when the snow hits as 131 through Grand Rapids every day after 2:00. I just skip the whole city if I'm headed to the cabin on a Friday and don't leave work early.

I remember a thing that a fella told me once, "Don't start, and there won't be none." Might be this one simple thing can be applied for everyone here. Can't keep on poking the bear🐻 or beehive🐝 with good expectations I reckon, as it's hard not to come back once the topic is broached, leastways it is for me, I suspect it is for others as well.
@Woodpecker is right, I had a phone conversation about this very thing a few days ago with a member not seen here in recent times. So, we have to try harder to be better and stuff for the gooderment of everyone.
I will, and if I or anyone else slips...

P.S. I know I made that one word up.

When I was a kid they put snow chains on the buses and went on. Now if they are even calling for snow they cancel school.
School buses up here all have those rotating retracting chain gizmos, which is fine until the front end starts sliding and you end up in the ditch

Ice will still shut down school up here

And while we are at it, how come school buses don't have seat belts

I wouldn't of thought ICE had much presence in Alaska. Didnt think they'd close a school down. Where are most of the immigrants from up there?

Haven’t needed to buy any batteries lately and I wait for deals

Understand, I'm the same way, typically only buy stuff on the BOGO deals, or such. They've been running a deal last few months on two 8.0 forges and the new dual bay super charger, it ends 2-2-25. On the fence about grabbing it, before time runs out.

I'm afraid of price hikes if 25% tariffs are tacked on some of these things.

Never even considered that risk. I tossed my last tool market book but have the current one. Guess I better go through it again.
