Well my very good friend out there, that saves my butt all the time, went to the cabin yesterday. Or I should say he tried lol..... He was going to "make sure" he could make it up so he hauled his tracked Rhino up there. Nope, still couldn't make it. I'm dying here waiting for pics! Here's a pic of where he said it starts getting bad. He walked up a ways from here and said it gets real nasty quick AND he said the mountain got MORE snow last night!

What's your annual snowfall total up there? Our last frost date is a month from now.

I would think snowmobile as well, but it looks a bit wet in the pic.

He has a snowmobile but I have no idea. He did say it was very wet. The problem is the fish truck wants to come next week. He is getting a bunch of trout lower down and I am getting a little bit. Just so the kids at least have something to catch this summer. He said if the snow isn't gone by next weekend we are going to plan b. Still hasn't responded to WTH is plan b?? Lol

Hard to get a prettier setting than that! The waiting to get out there must be a real bugger. I know it would be for me

Thanks Mn! Waiting definitely sucks! Hopefully we will be moving out that way relatively soon (5 years or so)

I'm glad of the Gast mis-order flub.

I ordered the capacitor, bracket and rubber isolation mounts from McMaster-Carr in Chicago and saved $68.10. Gast wanted $29.97 MORE just for the capacitor alone.

Should ship tomorrow.

That's too bad things have gone down hill at Gast. Seems like a lot of people here use their pumps.
