Moved from Florida to a new home in Pennsylvania. It's so beautiful here. The lake to the north looks so majestic. I can hardly wait to see it snow covered. I'm going to love it here.

October 14
PA is definitely the most beautiful place on earth.
The leaves have turned all the colors and shades of red and orange. Went for a ride through the park and saw some deer. They are so graceful. Certainly they are the most wonderful animals on earth.


This must be paradise, I LOVE IT HERE.

November 10
Deer season will start soon. I can't imagine anyone wanting to kill such a gorgeous animal, hope it will snow soon. I love it here.

Those red and orange leaves have covered my yard. Looks like a magnificent multi-colored carpet. HOW BEAUTIFUL. Raking and cleaning up the yard will be an opportunity for invigorating exercise in the cool crisp air.


November 15 -
Ah, more leaves and more exercise.


November 18 -
Jesus, still more leaves. Guess it's best to wait until they've all fallen before I rake again.


November 25 -
Finally, all of the trees lost their leaves and today's final raking it's over for this season. Chiropractor suggested I use a lawn maintenance service next year. Only four blisters became infected. Should probably remember to use gloves.

November 30 -
What the f--k? Where did all of those leaves come from? A little wind last night and the lawn is covered again. Oh well, they'll just have to wait until spring.

December 12 -
It snowed last night, FINALLY. Woke up to find everything blanketed in white. It looks like a postcard. We went outside and cleaned the snow off the steps and shoveled the driveway. Had a snowball fight (I won) and when the snowplow came by and we had to shovel the end of the driveway again. What a beautiful place. I Love PA.

December 14 -
More snow last night, I love it. The snowplow did his trick to the driveway again. I Love it here.


December 19 -
More snow again last night. Can't get out of the driveway to get to Dunkin Donuts. I'm exhausted from shoveling. F---ing snowplow.

December 22 -
More of that white sh-t fell again last night. As if dealing with the leaves weren't bad enough, now I've got blisters
all over my hands from shoveling, must remember to wear gloves. I think the snowplow hides around the corner
and waits until I'm finished shoveling the driveway. The a--hole.

December 25 -
Merry Christmas.
More frigging snow. If I ever get my hands on that son-of-a-bitch who drives the snowplow. I swear I'll kill the bastard. Don't know why they don't use more salt on the roads to melt the f---ing ice.

December 27 -
More white sh-t last night. Have been inside for three days except for shoveling out the driveway after that plow goes through every time. F---ing gloves got wet and then froze on my hands. Doctor said it was just a mild case of frostbite, disfiguration is probably only temporary. Can't go anywhere, car is stuck in a mountain of white sh-t. The weatherman says to expect another 10 inches of the sh-t tonight. Do you know how many shovels full of snow 10 inches is?

December 28 -
The f---ing weatherman was wrong. We got 34 inches of that white sh-t. At this rate it won't melt 'till summer.
The plow got stuck up the road and the bastard came to the door and asked to borrow a shovel. After I told him
I'd already broken six of them shoveling all the sh-t he pushed into the driveway, I broke my last one on his f---ing head.

January 4 -
Finally got out of the house today. Went to the store to get food and on the way back I hit a damned deer that ran in front of my car. Did about $3000 damage. F---ing beast should be killed. Wish the hunters had killed them all last November.

May 3 -
Took the car to the garage in town. The thing is rusting out from all the f---ing salt they put all over the roads.

May 10 -
Moved to The Villages in Florida. I can't imagine why anyone in their right mind would ever live in that God-forsaken state of PA.

That plow driver must have had a twin brother living in the Sierras. :D

I think they enjoy doing it honestly... in Germany when I was stationed there, they plowed the snow right up in front of my Honda Civic I had... I mean I know it was white too, and lowered... but damn.... guess they figured it was lowered so I wouldn't be driving it any time soon anyways.. but after two and half hours of just digging out the front of the car, I was on my way to work with my lowered Civic in about 6 inches of snow... passed the CJ7 that had been trying to climb a hill out of housing for an hour and half... yep... he was still at the bottom of the hill trying to leave, as I made the turn at the top of the hill to head to work.... damn snow plows...

That cold living is not for humans. God did put some hair on us but not enough to withstand snow, thus we were not designed to live in such a climate. I therefore live in South Texas and with this winter we had I am thinking of moving to Belize.

Wow! That is exactly how it is in PA but he forgot to mention the d--n ice, the horrible amount of mud in the spring & stupid squirrels, birds and chipmunks that all have suicide wishes....So who wants to come to PA to live with me?...:smiley-laughing021::smiley-laughing021:

I used to live in Kemblesville (SE PA). Feb 16, 2001 while shoveling snow in the driveway I thought, "OK - had enough of this". A few weeks later my work asked if anyone wanted to move to Houston. I jumped on it. The only regret I have is not moving sooner.

One should travel to the snow, not have the snow travel to them. All snow plow operators lay in wait for all the suckers to finish shoveling then they have drag races to see who can cover up the most cleared areas. I'm pretty sure it is part of their training. The leaf thing can be blamed on Murphy.
