Doesn’t sound like it by the forecast. We’re supposed to soon startgetting a mix of all the nasty weather we’ve missed out on all winter. Maybe up to 6” by the time the storm is over.

Does this mean you are putting the machine in storage until next winter or are you going for one more futile try at getting me.  ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

| 35 degrees here in Carlinville, IL. Kind of a gloomy day. Weather forecaster in St. Louis, MO keeps saying we shouldn't think winter's over. At least winter's days are getting fewer as we mark days off the calendar. |

Tom, Get your taters in the ground as soon as soil is workable. Maom always said, to have good taters, the tops have to be froze off at least once. Twice or three ties is better. ------------- When you find yourself in a hole,PUT DOWN THE SHOVEL!!! |
