    We want pictures!

    Maybe a mailbox like this will help?

    I wish he could. Unfortunately, this area has covenants that require the same mailbox for everyone. But fortunately, the city replaces the ones they crush for free.

    I think I'm on No. 5. :crazy:

    They can all be made to "look" the same but I wonder if you can dig a deep hole and make it so it wont fall down again. :ihih::devil:

    My neighbor has a mailbox that is made of 1/4 inch steel, but it looks just like a standard mailbox.

    Kind of jarring, I'd imagine, to those rotten kids playing mailbox baseball.

    You'll have to use your imagination. The snow is about 4 feet deep at the curb in some places, and I'm not going to dig it out!

    It was 55F this afternoon here in C-bus.....

    Sun was out a little.... Felt good to be out in a T-shirt...

    Got the electric hedge trimmers out and gave all the Yew bushes a haircut...:D

    Then I attacked the wild honeysuckle....

    All in all, a great afternoon to be outside...

    Cold enough that it makes my artificial body parts ache.

    I need winter home in the south. Just wish my boss agreed :(

    I was just browsing the most recent Mt. Washington, NH forecast (attached) for MINI motoring conditions. :eek6:

    The grass isn't always greener elsewhere. Confirmed.

    I have come to think of this state as an east California, and the west cost is no place I would ever want to live...
    I plan on moving back down to the true beauty of this country in east Tennessee as soon as possible though!

    Hey Dick I waxed my car yesterday.
    My garage is not that cold because they have now pink stuff called insulation. You should Google it. Also with the 26 tubes worth of 6500k T2 Florecent lights it nice and bright and warming. :ihih: :Thumbsup:

    Also I know how to close the door when I work on my car. :lol:

    It's in the low to mid twenties until and then the bottom falls out of the heat bucket and then it plummets to the negative ten range with winds around 10 -25 mph with gusts 40 plus and the real neat part is it's snowing.
