Think we'll get rid of the snow before July 4th?  |
Here's another old Michigander on the forums! I hope we get rid of the snow a little earilier than July 4th! I have been tempted to drain my snowblower several times, as it usually doesn't get much use, except this year! Sort of getting the itch to crank up the mower and rake up the leaves I didn't get to last fall!
Good luck to txharp3 on the horn search for whatever works best! Up till a couple of years ago, I played a Strad for 22yrs, got bored, discovered Ebay and Forums, and my horn list resulted and lots of fun, despite a couple of duds along the way. Now if I can just afford a couple of Ambassadors........
