did anyone have trouble with their generater filling up with blowing snow this past weekend on red.                /our s did and we had to exit to home early because of it.  it looked like snow got into  the air intake and then into the oil .the triangle did us in. hope we did not ruin it.

Doc, the power of the triangle is nothing new to most of us here.
the ability to overcome small obstacles has become a way of life for us as well.
I have spent many a night on the big red and not had to rely on a generator.
the moron had one for the camper, but that was so he could enjoy the porn on the satelite and make toast and coffee.
I'd be dipped in butter before I would let my weekend be cut short cuz I had to eat plain bread or run into west wind for a cup of coffee.
think about it.
I mean it was cold and all, but I have slept in the seat of my ford, quite comfortably I might add more times than I can count. get up in the a.m. and the truck is toasty warm, hop in the fish house wide eyed and bushy tailed, ready to pull up some hog slabs.

at the very least, a guy should have a plan B.
take a kid hunting and fishing!!

your right jiggle.we had bread,cigars,whiskey,heat,lights,and even a few crappies. i guess we forgot to do the shooks shake and the cold temps froze my only brain cell.

aww, dont sweat it. you just panicked.
the size of them crappies must of sent you into shock ;D
next time you go up, stop in shooks, and shake....hands with the president ;)
then that little shake at the end will get you on the right foot.
you will feel ten foot tall and bullet proof.
you will be on top of the world!!
well you will be on top of the ice anyway.
next time, when the triangle throws you a curve ball, you reach in your bag and pull out your one piece, one size fits all, genuine hand pounded lead suit.
this is the ONLY thing known to totaly deflect the powers of the triangle.
a little challenging to get around in, but the protection far outweighs the inconvenience.
I will pop one in the mail for you.
no problem brother....CLAMP ON!! ;)

Sure not fun when it quits in this darn cold but I think that happens a lot.  Good thing Russ has a spare so he can thaw out one and still keep everything running good.
Toast and coffee in the morning is good!
And it helps keep the customers happy too.

Mine didn't fill up with water. Instead it quit in the middle of the night. Figured maybe it run out of gas. Went to check, nope run out of oil. Good thing it has the oil sensor thing on it or I may have been in the market for another.
