    Tennessee Snowstorm

    @Rammy ... you're in TN right? I am surprised to see that they do not put down any kind of grit/sand or something on the roads. They don't use salt on dirt roads but alot of the roads get a type of grit on the snow covered roads here that don't have enough snow to plow. You can see the ice...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    If the explorer caught on fire I would get more out of the insurance than I will get by selling it... was hoping someone might come along and slide on the icy road, going too fast, and hit it and total it...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Just caught up on this post... @CrealCritter .... NO smooth concrete is NOT recommended for livestock as a couple others have told you. They will slip, cattle can go down, "split", hind legs go out from under them, tearing or injuring the stifles and muscles and ligaments and may not ever be...

Oh well, like you, will contact the...
