What do you mean I don’t get snow. Wasn’t that long ago mayor Lastman had the army come dig us out. 🤦

I’ve had more than 4’ high snow falls before drifts or snow piles. I may not live on a mountain but we are between to large lakes.

I just stopped enjoying being out in it after I hit 50.

90% off your winter was green last year lol

you get city snow, it's not the same... you sit in your jammies and wait for someone to plow you out then you go out and shovel the sidewalk... ppppfffff!!!

not the same... just sayin... :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

dig your ass out to the plow and hope you don't get stuck or break anything pay for all the gas and parts for yourself and then when you're done still shovel the sidewalk and all that... now thats country life baby!! 🤠

Been there.
Lived atop a mountain at a Christian camp.
When it snowed, you made a pass every 45 minutes to an hour or you were not gonna plow at all.
This was an all night thing too. Salting sidewalks and shit cause apparently Christians don't sleep!

It’s the wind on top this mountain in the winter that I hate. I don’t care how layered up one dresses that shit goes right through it.

Wind is what ruins the cold for me, I can handle the cold but like you say it doesn't matter what you wear the wind goes right through like a screen.

i know it doesn't protect every part from the wind but i like to wear a thin 4X windbreaker jacket overtop of my coat. really helps a lot for my atv in the winter. mine has a tall collar that zips up over my mouth to keep my neck warm.

my hands are my weak spot in the cold...

Not a bad idea.

I wear 3 or 4 pair of jersey gloves and then a pair of thick thinsulate leather work gloves. They're the best I've found so far.

I have a snow mobile coat I wear. It’s pretty warm, but I hate being outside with the wind. There are very few trees or other natural wind blocks on this summit. It’s 30 - 40 mph north or northwesterly winds all the time during winter. When it gets windy it’s 50+ mph around here. You don’t leave anything outside up here in winter.

i've never been in 50+ in my life that i can ever remember... respect!
 
Mile long just to have peace and quiet.
Got none of that here.

GoodShit97 said:
Hahaha it's because fabric originally came from jersey during the medieval period

So
Jersey gloves.
They're just cotton gloves.
But yeah jersey sucks 🤣

i had assumed they were the cotton ones (i hate the ones with that sticky coating) (<- those gotta be made in Jersey.. the sticky stuff is like velcro mittens for the sheep!!!) :LOL: :LOL:

i sometimes forget just how awesome the quiet is. i never here traffic or people ever... like tonight all i can hear is the high school football game about five or six miles away down in the valley... go panthers!!!!!

real late at night and early in the morning if there's no wind you can hear trains hooking up like three of four mountains away... with a telescope i can see them then like a minutes later you can hear it!!!!! freakin crazy and mind blowing!!!

i just wish i could shut off power in town.. i live in a fairly small town but it's only a few miles down the hill nice to be away and kinda close at the same time, i can get to a grocery store, auto parts, and true value and a bunch others within ten minutes so it is nice having it close yet far enough away to never see or hear it. but all the lights from town make it tough to see stars!!!! when we have total blackouts every ten years or so it is kinda awesome, the sky looks amazing!

it's really hard for us to travel anymore and sleep in hotels where it's noisy... "thank god i'm a country boy" 𝅘𝅥𝅯𝅘𝅥𝅯

See what my wife has to deal with haha 😆 no, she isn't expected to do that either, just talking about with me here how she has to deal with me lol

I should come with a warning label

But now what has captured my thought is a blumpkin gestapo running around ridding the world of all those "no good blumpkin people" 🧐🤣
Click to expand...
You made me look. 🤦

So I had to share with the fam.

Moans, groans, shock and surprise. 🤣

Little creepy too…

Stoneyluv said:
yea, like over a dozen times a year. i have a generator that can power everything in the house, even has remote start. it's the price i pay to be a mountain man!



noooooooooo!! they're gonna ruin it little by little.



i started the free ten day trial tonight.. so far i like it. quick to ffw through commercials, picture quality actually looks better than Dtv. and has unlimited dvr. i added the 4K package and that includes unlimited devices versus the standard three it's a 60 days free trial anyway. a couple channels i like aren't in it though... reelz and A&E.

but for the price i'm pretty sure i'll deal with it. i'll just download those shows from torrents.

I’ve never paid for tv. Rarely watched it but would hook it up myself. Ladder and coax. 🤣

Once computers could DL a movie in under a day I started collecting them. Seems a lot of IT people get into collecting movies. I’d share them with fam and friends. Burn them or USB.

Haven’t had internet in a few years but one of my nephews drops off a HDD a few times a year to keep us up to date. Others I stream off my wife’s iPhone with Netflix/Prime. Eats data bad so used sparingly.

Installed Tubi but only had a peek so far.

We got it, it would just rain or get sunny over the next 48hrs. Made it damp and chill. At least snow helps keep it warm inside.

I hear it’s going to be a bad winter this year. If that makes you feel any better. 🤷‍♂️🤣

It does get bad. Corner lot and we have wrap around sidewalks inside the fence. Double the work.

It got bad enough I bought a Sears 28” snow thrower to clear the driveway. Before that I had 31” tires on the Jeep. Just drive out. 🤣

You know my dad and mom live in two northern locations. Both have long driveways. At least I don’t have to do them anymore.

20 horses but “I” have to shovel. 🤦
