Sit in the house till it melts. Maybe a day or two.

Good advice. Looks like you folks are getting hit pretty hard.

Even up here with heavy road maintenance equipment in place, that's a good time to minimize travel.

Stay safe.

He is from Georgia. Probably had to use Google to find out what the cold white stuff is. Sorry, just could not contain myself.

Steep driveway, and may be paved from the sounds of the golf cart escapade.

Modern tractor and R4s (just a guess) - yeah, I'd leave it parked too, esp. with limited or no snow experience.

LOL, when you guys get 3 more inches, post back and I'll come down there and open a snowmobile dealership. :laughing:

3", holy cow, I'd crawl into bed with a sleeping bag and cry until it melts. I'm sorry Skytime24, you have to realize some of us think 3" of snow is just a light dusting. It does look by your pics that you do have some slope to deal with but if your tractor is 4 wheel drive, drop the bucket and scrape that snow off.
