Work shut down for today, and I bet they didn't show up this morning! I wish they would just go back to Detroit if they like this kind of weather! By the way, I saw several semis jackknifed on I-65 and I-85 in Montgomery yesterday and guess where most of them were from.......you got it, states that commonly get snow.

Yeah your guys from Detroit have some incorrect information. I've seen too many Weather Channel videos of 200 car pileups on yankee roads to believe we are the only ones who don't know how to drive on slick roads.

not the coast..... but some of my handy work...besides some of the older folks driveways, I do most of the street too,when needed....my neighbors enjoy my efforts, the only time I get the 4wheeler out in the city to play
