Hey Everyone,

Made my first snow in Macon, Georgia last night thanks to the help of this site and members and make snow at home

Started with a SG3 design that sort of worked and then at 2:00am broke it down to a tee gun since I need to work on my nucleation nozzle.

Channel 13WMAZ (CBS) came out to interview me and I memtioned this site. I appreciate all the help and hope to get better and better at snowmaking.

God Bless,
Rick

Nice! I went to Macon, GA for the cherry blossom festival last year (2006)! The main things I remember are:
1) Boiled peanuts Thumbs down
2) Heat
3) The huge inflatable cruise ship at the entrance
4) Heat
5) Boiled peanuts
Did I repeat myself? hmmm.... But I liked the town of Macon, and that's very cool you made snow! Keep up the good work!! Smile Also, outside of Macon, don't you have some old Indian stuff with houses made of pieces of shells? What's the name of it? Sorry, I tend to ramble! Boot The point is, keep up the good work!


Puppies like slush, but snowmakers don't!

Dear Greg & Colin,

Thanks for the kind comments. Colin, That is right about the Cherry Blossom, there is usually clogging(dancing) also. The Indian Mounds are The Ocmulgee Indian Mounds. There is a ceremonial hut there. We have a trail along the Ocmulgee River now that is nice Ocmulgee Heritage Trail, Macon, GA Have a great time in your snowmaking, hope you get to the Cherry Blossom again, give a holler and we'll talk snow.

In Him and In the snow,
Rick
