Buy my house so I can move to Eastern Tennessee.
The town I like has 40s this week, 50s next.
Averages 50 high and 24 low for February.

We get plenty of white fluffy snow here.
You can have it.

I have 3 driveways and broke my snowthrower today
First storm I used it on.
They guy I bought it from is a stand-up kinda guy so is giving me full credit towards another

With the right tires it is pretty decent. The stock Firestone's which come with the 17inch rims are pretty poor.

I wouldn't know. I keep my SS in the barn when the white stuff falls. Had a great time with the new snowplow that I bought in Sept though.

On the + side, it's TIME FOR SNOWBOARDING!!!

Whatever happen to the first snow being 6inches, We went from 1inch a week ago and got blasted with a Foot. Funny part is 40 Miles East only got 4-6inches.

Getting Home wasn't fun. Living out in the sticks has its down falls. Made it all the way home and got stuck in the driveway. I need a Truck except can't afford one.
