We just got another what looks like 3 to 6 inches overnight on top of the two feet that was from three weeks ago. Here in Gloucester,Ma.  :dislike:

Funny thing of it is about a twenty minute walk away from my house is a cemetery and yesterday there was a burial there of a poor (luck) retired fireman who got run down by a cop. I don't know the exact details just that he was walking away from a college he was attending to be a  more specialized attendant to the needs of veterans as he was one of those too. He got hit and it was during the big snowstorm from three weeks ago. So anyways there was this motorcade of six fully decked out Harley patrol bikes there and I sure wish I had a camera to capture that scene among the crazy snow piles. Mind you our roads suck with all the salt and this was the first week of melting with temps ranging from mid twenties to high thirties.

I feel like an old man "get off my lawn" saying this but I kinda don't get it with the police bikes in the middle of winter, real winter that is. Just seems like an expensive liability, accident waiting to happen but they do look cool.

The thing that really sucks about the snow is the cold because it just hangs around, no where to really put it. Roads narrow so, so messy. Always a concern about ice, gotta be careful and patient.

Hahahaha guess where I live...Two blocks from the ocean, 50+ winds, and potentially 3 feet of snow.
