YEAH 17 INCHES OF BLOWING DRIFTING SNOW stinks.
I work for E.P. Grade Schools 7 schools total with a minimum of 14 lots to plow...
4-6 foot drifts to move...we worked in teams cause the trucks were getting stuck so often
All schools were closed for 3 days but we have to work when they call it off.
I live out in the country so the drive in wed. morning was dangerous!!
I really got to see what my truck would go through!!
Thank god for 4 wheel drive.
I got the Grizzly out in the yard Sat. and blasted some drifts... had the Grand son with me so we just played a little till he got cold.
I still dont have a picture account set up so I can't post anything

Clem, I let my wife see that vid of the rzr.....Man that was a mistake, now I'll never get one because she says I'll be having to much fun while trying to work......ME? NEVER!!!!
I felt really bad with this snow. It was the first time in 4 years I did not clean any of my neighbors drives since most of them are elderly and don't need to be doing it. Just 8 days out of surgery with my icd implant I did mine and my in-laws and that was way more than I should have.
My granddaughter begged me to get the warrior out and do some donuts, but I think I might have gotten a little stuck. She wants to ride as much as I do......Glad you all got to have fun with this snow....
P.S. One of my good friends I have known all my life died thursday while shoveling his driveway. He had a massive heart attack (He was only 47)so Please all be careful in the future and have fun.

These are just a few pics of the blizzard we took.  Taken out the front door.  There is a porch there somewhere.  Before we cleaned it off.  After being cleaned off. Notice it's not a station wagon.   I guess you could say that we were snowed in. Even with 4 wheel drive I almost didn't get down our street. The city did not plow it for 2 days after the snow. |
