We had a 20 lb bag the first weekend. However, that dwindled to 10 lbs quickly. The 2nd weekend we used the remaining 10 lbs sparingly. There was absolutely no ice melt to be found.
Thankful Thursday is quite simple....
Saturday, February 14, 2026 our HEARTS were
thankful to see this pile of Ice Melt at Ace Hardware in Lake Boone Shopping Center.
50 lb for 18.99. We hope we don't need it again this year but are very
THANKFUL to have it.

Crazy coincidence this photo and the Poetic Photo are so similar.
Today is Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy at Two Spoiled Cats

one can haul it away

ReplyDeleteCrikey, though, I hope your vehicle was not overcome in such a manner!!! YAM xx
oh we agree... this winter needs a ginormous salt truck...
ReplyDeleteThat photo leaves me speechless!
ReplyDeleteI don't think even a boat load of ice melter would get rid of all of ours this year! 🙄 😆
Glad you were able to get a new supply of ice melt for emergency use. Hopefully you won't need to use it before next winter. Fun poem, but I hope you got yours home more safely than that!
ReplyDeletePeople tend to hoard things like ice melt when the snow starts flying. Good idea to buy it when you see it so that you have it on hand.
ReplyDeleteThat photo is too funny. I sure would hate to be the driver of that truck
We are so happy that you got your ice melt to keep you safe and that truck is a wee bit overloaded!
ReplyDeleteWe probably would need a ton of ice melt for our 225 foot driveway BUT we are thankful for the rain and 50 degree days which got rid of the ice FOR us! Love your poetry for that crazy truck.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Pam and Teddy
What a picture of a truck tipping over in weight, lol. Glad you got some ice melt but hope you never have to use it again. I can't believe it actually made it up to 60° yesterday while it rained. We're back to snow this weekend, lol.
ReplyDeleteWe never use ice melt. Mom shovels and then the sun normally takes out the ice on the walk and driveway in a day. If anything she sprinkles some sand on the ice.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, stock up on it while you can. Having is better than needing.
ReplyDeleteGlad you found a new supply, and yes, it does remind me of that overloaded truck. I am sure you did not overload your car...
ReplyDeleteYou all have had the iciest Winter I can remember this year!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the poem LOL
hugs,
Beth
Glad to hear you found more ice melt stuff. That's a great poem for that picture. I wouldn't want to be driving near that truck!
ReplyDeleteJava Bean: "Ayyy, that looks like enough ice melt to melt the Arctic!"
ReplyDeleteGlad you found some ice melt ~ MA is predicting yet another snow storm ~ at least it will melt fast ~ tis February and almost March ~ hope! ~ fun poem ~
ReplyDeleteHugs to you Cecilia and Angel Madi ~ xo
Boy, you had more ice than we did! I would have thought the opposite would have been so. Bruce is on a cruise to the Bahamas for the week as school had a 1 week break. From the pictures, cerulean blue skies...stunning sunsets...the ocean loos fab! He'll be back this weekend in tie for school. Lucky boy!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely happy you found some Ice Melt! Who knows what's going to happen. We are going down in the 30s Tuesday night... supposedly. It all keeps changing.
ReplyDeleteYour poem... Ice Melt must be great stuff. We haven't seen snow or ice for 8 years. Hope it stays that way. Hope you don't see any other wintry weather too!
Wow on that last picture! Enjoyed your poem and the header shot with Madi, beautiful! Glad you got your ice melt. It is 45 today and snowing hard. Should go a long way to melt more of the snow. However, we are being promised more snow on Monday!!! I hope they are wrong. I welcomed it at first and now I don't want any more :) Hugs, Denise
ReplyDeleteYes, let's home ice melt season is behind us now. Fun poem!!! Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday
ReplyDeleteI am at #9 on the linky today
Much love
Glad you got some ice melt. Good job on the poem. XO
ReplyDeleteI pray it lasts you a long, long time.
ReplyDeleteFun poem!
You can always store it for next year
ReplyDeleteA lot of areas got hit way more than us. Just a couple of days of snow - just enough for the neighbor kids to slide down our front yard a few times before they had disentigrated all of it.
ReplyDeleteWe have a bag of ice melt in the shed, but decided to just stay home for a change. (Good excuse - can't get out of our driveway or subdivision, LOL). And that really was cool how that picture so closely depicted the bags of ice melt. Have a great weekend!
