ChrisK Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 I made it to the river today only to find two feet of packed snow on top of my trailer. The idea was to fish for a couple of hours and then tend to my shoveling responsibilities but the fishing part quickly got put to the side when I realized just how much of the white stuff had to be moved off the roof. The hole time I was shoveling on the roof I could here the river flowing by calling me out and believe me it was all I could muster up not to climb down and suit up into my battle fatigues and head to the water. The river was prime and weather was perfect but the clock was ticking away and not in my favor. Carol decided to come out of the cozy warm trailer and take a couple pictures Didn't even have to wear a coat today The river did look beautiful,too bad. It will just have to wait until next weekend.... Cheers !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted December 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 No worries Brian. Theres practically no pitch on that roof. Like Skeeter said, If I did fall I'd just land in a big pile of snow Twocoda,now you know somebody that has a trailer there Wayne,I tried to talk her into it but she said if anyone is going fishing today it was going to be her.... Hey Leechman, By next week the water should be coming down by the looks of the forcast so it should be a steelfest for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governator Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 My dad stepped on the ladder coming down the roof clearing the snow 3 years ago. Ladder slipped out and he landed on the deck and broke his back. Was in a body cast for 8 months. Needless to say be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Step one buy 200,000 btu heater. Step two turn on heater inside of trailer. Step three Bring Carol inside were it is to hot to wear cloths. step Four victory smoke. Step five check roof if still snow bound repeat step 3 and 4. Just a little tip from your Uncle Arttie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
