I’ll go for a walk this afternoon, slip on a patch of neighbour’s ice, and take a picture of it. Will that make you happy, Muffin? WILL IT?!?
This weekend I was raking leaves, and may have to give the lawn another mow in the next few days. Snow? What is this thing you call snow?
Meh. The earliest I saw snow, was on September 17[sup]th[/sup] in 1980 in the Eastern Townships (at night, didn’t last, but it snowed !)
I’d be delighted if you were to join the long list of Canadian women who slipped on ice. 
When I was in grade school here in Montreal, we had snow on September 30.
June, July, and August are the only months where I’m not guaranteed to have any snow.
I have several weeks of playing with my garden weasel ahead of me. I haven’t even brought everything in yet…
I can remember a couple of freak early snows from when I was younger in southern Ontario–one occurred in mid-September, but it was just flakes that melted as soon as they hit the ground. Such things were quite rare, though.
But here, we had snow yesterday, and last week also. It will likely melt soon, but it’s only a matter of time before it stays for longer than a day or two.
Here at the top of Superior I’ve had snow in all the months, but it doesn’t last unless the ground is cold, e.g. Nov-May.
A long list of things I’d conveniently forgotten. Now I have to relive the pain of the nut wrench slipping and skinning my knuckles on the edge of the quarter panel at -20C. <whimper>.
I’ll just skate on down to the Superstore to get supper…
There are points every winter when you could skate easier than walk or drive. Sigh.
I could change my tires, but I don’t - off to Kal-Tire to have them done for me. 
Impact drivers are your friend.
Given the state of the roads around here last night, plenty of drivers were impacting each other.
Hey, let’s keep your personal life outta this. 
And for people who had money along with a garage. When you are 20 and living in an apartment, not so much of either.
Or May 7th, of course. :eek:
Then get more leverage by extending the handle with some scrap tubing. Effective and free (though not nearly as much fun as going braappp-braappp-braappp with an impact driver).
Memories from 30 years ago.
Shifting a recalcitrant nut was never the problem. Cold weather and icy parts were.
It would seem that Doug Ford agrees with you.
You’re a wicked man with a dirty mind; I admire that in a person.
I don’t always smoke crack, but when I do it’s in a drunken stupor!
