February 2015 is already here during the winter solstice bringing an historic blizzard snowstorm for the new century. The Snow Day after the blizzard, all schools close for the snow clean-up, removal, and snowfest fun-making outside in the chilling, wind-blustery cold. Clear blue skies and a day full of sunshine have been beckoning all hardy people to go brightly outdoors, encouraging everyone to come in the snowy cold Monday, February 2, 2015. It is not a typical first day of the week, when the buzzing sound of the Toro snow blowers running outside intrude upon our consciousness. I miss my Toro Snowblower which my Father, Roberto Hung purchased new from the Lombard Toro Dealer during December 1993, twenty-two (22) years ago. Our Toro Snowblower machine was registered to the Lombard Toro Dealer who is still located one block from our Lombard home at 502 South Westmore-Meyers Road and Washington Boulevard in District 5, York Township, Du Page County, Illinois USA.
