I had to adjust the belt on the snowblower last night.  She was pretty loose after all this heavy snow we've been getting.

I had to put on snow shoes last night to walk around and rake the roof, snow too deep to walk in.  I am considering buying a truck load of captain morgans, fillin the house with firewood and hibernating ;D

My father can't plow his driveway anymore, he has to snowblow because there is no more room to push snow.

Are you SURE it's safe to walk on? Looks questionable to me!

Accoring to the www.weather.com it is looking like we are to get 14" or so inland, and it is set to start around 2am. It is going to make for a crazy day tomorrow.

 The way I see it is that I"m done ice fishing...30days till open water.......
I'll make sure that the snow in front of the boat is clear....I'll pile the snow up more on the sides and be down to a 1 car driveway..
 My only conplaint is that I'll be driving in it at 2am....I hope the coast of Mass only gets rain. :-\

Same thing when I bought my Kubota. Wife thought it was just another toy (kinda was) but it has turned out to be the best little snow fighter I have ever had. When it's time to upgrade to a bigger one in the future I don't think I'll hear any arguments. Bring it on!!! :flex:

I love it! 'bout time 'Ole Man Winter' provided me with some justification for holding onto my snow sled when guys all around me were getting rid of theirs to buy a bigger/newer four-wheeler ;D I just wish it was a little colder, maybe chase a few more of them flatlanders back south across the bridge ;D ;D

We ran out of room for snow too! Had a front end loader here last week pushing it all back. I live in a below ground unit. We couldn't see out the windows. Looks like we are in for it again! At least I get to use the sled more this year!
