Wish all of you in snow country all the best -- it's tough in the best of times, but the Farmer's Almanac is calling for a really bad winter this season. I'm already scouring Craigs List for firewood for the woodstove this winter. I usually go through 1-1/2 cords

My wood is all done. Last year 3 cords.

Triple digits have been broken - down to mid/high 90's this week. A little rain. The monsoon this year was terrible.
Lows are low/mid 70's. the end of the summer is near! 8)

I think the Farmer's Almanac, just might be correct, the leaves a falling like mad here. Started a month, month and a half ago. At first thought it was rain related, now the yard getting full every other day.

Oh well happens every year  ;D
A glowing statement ^

As much as I dislike snow, I make a lot of money if we have a lot of snow selling tools and pressure washers to guys plowing, not to mention more soap to my regular customers.

Yup -- some guys make a good living in the winter. The guy that does my yearly lawn weeding, tree trimming, and seeding confided in me that his winter snowplowing brings his small business into profitability for the year. Without that revenue, he couldn't survive strictly on mowing and yard work during the spring, summer and fall.

Which is something considering it's only a handful of days a year.
