on November 6, 2014 at 3:18 pmHere in the Hunter Valley our Spring is thus far a bit drier than we would like. The temperatures have been nudging 30 degrees C, and the skies are blue. All you folk in the frozen North should close up and come down under to visit us and experience the real Southern hospitality.
See yawl !
Fergo ;-}

on November 6, 2014 at 4:08 pmHere in Nebraska, I would love to prepare for this winter with the purchase of a new Toro Single Stage Snow Thrower….with 2 Stroke Engine!
I had a one such Snow Thrower that lasted better than ten years (5 HP 2 Stroke made by Suzuki?), and was very bummed to find that Toro no longer makes this model.
I purchased a similar but different brand snow thrower equipped with a 5HP 4 stroke motor and this unit is a major dissapointment.
Bring Back the 2 Strokes..whats the worst that could happen? Global Warming? GREAT..maybe I will no longer have a need for a snow thrower.

on November 6, 2014 at 4:40 pmWell…..since the Farmer’s Almanac predicted a hot, dry summer here in Michigan that never materialized, I’m not putting any stock in their winter forecast.
