Hi Bruce and Tony
Bruce; I have read you can get a good tan from snow reflection, I also hear refection is bad for the eyes as well, hence sunglasses. Tony; Living in Lithgow I know you can have both, Snow and bushfires, but mate, I live in a small town in the Adelaide Hills and I have had my fair share of fighting bushfires, more than enough for a lifetime. Like you we all look to the sky on extreme heat days and wait for that smoke smell and fire siren. We have been saved more than once by those Canadian tanker planes dropping their loads on the fires. I hope we don't have to rely on those brave guys again this season. Fingers crossed. Tony

It was only 10 inches ( I suspect 12 inches that compacted to 10 inches due to how wet it was.
A real pain to shovel as it weight a ton. 45 Horse power tractor with 6 foot blower was almost stalling the engine and /or the chute would pack up with slush which needs manual clearing....making sure the blower is stopped.......a few year ago a policeman cleaning is driveway got a jam and tried to clean it while running the auger....... got sucked in to the waist........ Now it really looks like Xmas. Cleaning up the two driveway, around the house, around the barn, shelter roof takes almost the full day...... would take the rain from Phil anytime. Cheers
