Frankie on Omaha’s snow storm


I actually remember thinking in the midst of my divorce how blissful my life would be if I had only been born with Down’s syndrome. That was a pretty low point in my life, but I’ve known two individuals that have it and are the happiest most amazing people I’ve met. That being said…






Get the down’s

Puts a new meaning to the “get the downs” reaction
 
Snow day but no snow so far
 
I just mean in the Omaha area. Hope it comes our way, the ol Craftsman snow blower needs a workout. Been a few years
Gotta 30 year old Toro all fired up and ready to roll. I put new tires, beater bar, scraper blade, belt, spark plug, etc. on it last year and ... never used it. That dumb thing just keeps starting and spitting snow, and I hope the trend continues.

I do, however, hate having to mix gas & oil. This is the only remaining gas-powered appliance I have left in the fleet. Everything transitioned to battery over the last 5 years or so. They work great, IMO, but I don't have a monster yard to maintain anymore.

Love it. This is a 90s Craftsman. Got it serviced up a couple months ago, auger belt was replaced two years ago, it's ready to rock whenever. I got nothing battery powered lol love the gas too much
 
I know the weather can be hard to predict, but the omaha weathermen and women seem to be really really bad.
