bigfish1965 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 For the first time EVER I am calling off work today due to snow. Got about 40 cm and drifting in places is well over a metre. Not driving in this crap for no one. Now I know I am old. Used to be a time when I loved driving in the nasty stuff.

Whopper Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Took the day off yesterday and to be honest with ya I would have rather been working instead of doing the snow removal thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Enjoy your day Rick!!! I came to work and there's only one other person here. The receptionist called in, then the other employees called in, then the BOSS called in. Nobody else is coming. Guess I'll stick it out til I get bored then leave Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garyv Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) We hardly got anything, maybe 10 to 15 Cm and lots of blowing snow. It pays to be in Southwestern Ontario as were much closer to the Equator than you Hamilton, Toronto , Niagara people. All done until later today here.

Corey Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I just spent 2 hours with the snowblower. I will be leaving for work shortly... 4' drift at the end of my driveway... took a little bit of time, but I snowblowed through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeXXington Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 I wanted to stay at home too but with my Wife and kid home I figured Work was a quieter place to go and read OFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrap Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Just finished doing most of the driveway and most spots were over 80cm and the mini hills from the blowing snow were about 2 metre's. All done by shovel, I think my ams are gonna fall off when i do the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccmtcanada Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) I planned ahead...brought some work home and the boss was ok with that. I have a 60km drive from the burbs to Toronto. On a day like this it easily would have taken me 2.5 hours to get there....and 2.5 hours to get back. I was going to take the GO train, but at 630am, they already were experiencing troubles and canceled a few trains. Just checked back now and they are still canceling trains! Glad I made the choice to stay home instead of spending about 5 hours on the road. With the day off, I checked out local rink...about a 2 min drive from home. They had a parent/tot public skate from 10 to 11 this morning, so I took my little one there. It was great! $4.50 for the hour....it was pretty much empty there....3 parents and 4 kids. She had a blast, so it was all worth it. Edited February 14, 2007 by ccmtcanada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
