Roy has been incommunicado because of 3 feet of snow in Ned, and his power and internet are out.
His address for sending cash or check donations is:
Thanks for the update, Rick. Sorry we can't join the ruckus at Todd's, we'll just be there in spirit.

LOL
That's gonna be a shock!
Going from snowed-in in Nederland to JT, where it will be flirting with triple digit temps this weekend.

By the time we leave the mess left by the recent pummeling of snow, cool temperatures will be in J-tree. According to weather.com, the high on the 25th is only 74 degrees. Boo hoo.
EDIT: CRIMPERGIRL HERE, NOT BN

Just spent a couple days off the grid due to power outage.
Friday night I shoveled 2 feet of snow off our entire roofline.
During those couple of hours, six more inches of snow rapidly built up on the areas I had cleared...
(As a good portion of our roof is nearly flat, this routine is encouraged after lots of heavy wet snowfall)
Saturday night I shoveled my driveway while everything was still pretty cold, before warmer temps would catch up with me and ultimately magnify the weight of every shovel load.
Although moderate exercise is indicated for remodeling of tissue after ASTYM therapy,
Don't try this at home, especially if your arms hurt:
Today I finished reading a stack of papers, thanks to Dana B.
 common and unique mechanisms regulate fibrosis in various fibroproliferative diseases
pharmacotherapy in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
co-medication with hydrolytic enzymes in radiation therapy of uterine cervix: evidence of the reduction of acute side effects
proteolytic enzyme therapy in evidence based complementary oncology: fact or fiction?
the efficacy of trypsin: chymotrypsin preparation in the reduction of oxidative damage during burn injury
effect of the proteolytic enzyme serrapeptase in patients with chronic airway disease
effect of the proteolytic enzyme serrapeptase on swelling, pain and trismus after surgical extraction of mandibular third molars
role of cytokines and cytokine therapy in wound healing and fibrotic diseases
... that last one was a bit heavy.
My take away from all this?
I don't know for sure, I went to bed with a tummy ache last night, but...
Looks like systemic enzyme therapy might be a good complement to ASTYM or lots of medical situations that eventuate in, or are complicated by, Fibrosis.
Hope to see a good handful of you nice people out in the desert pretty soon.

The weather in J-Tree will be great. Just not as hot as desired by a poikilotherm like me. :)
Looking toward Tarbuster's home - LOTS of snow and this is after a lot of melting!

Just beware of avalanches, or drowning on the approach. Ha!

there's a lot of pride to be had looking back, in thoroughly saturated garb, at a trail blazed by the righteously wielded shovel. i've got a quiver of shovels myself, one for each "special purpose." there's no need to research the medline for references to your heart, will, or cussedness mister buster. the sign of a fellow, thinly vieled manic, unchained and raging against the storm, would not be missed by the likes of say, john henry,....or thor.

Rick A.....yo can't be serious:D You're already up to 500 plus posts. Do you think we should start an rsvp thread ?
I'm bringing the tables, tape, tickets, exacto knives and misc. Pretty jazzed but why haven't we heard from Le Band ? Are they still planning on jammin' ? Peace, Lynne

Yeah hooblie!!!
Ye speak thee words well and in timely fashion,
Henceforth we must endeavor to remove the white and fluffy;
'Lest the odd steel at far right be thusly prompted
To coarsely expend its crusty summer luster
Against the encroaching and unbearable ice...
But me, I'm a minimalist.
(The green one is all the better half of a his 'n hers pair)
