Haven’t posted in a bit. Did you guys use you machine in the snow? IMG_4667.JPGIMG_4658.JPG

The usual, my 2360 front-mount blower. Hard to beat that, and I don't get the high ridges plows leave -- there's certainly enough of that around here, blocking views of the road on driveways, intersections, etc. A bit dangerous in places, methinks.

What are you kidding?...if it were not for playing in the snow a good portion of the TBN membership could get by with just a lawn mower...!

Well - I had an inch and a half. Then it turned warm and rained. I now have green grass. Our heaviest snows come in Jan & Feb - if we are going to get anything. Certainly looks like you got your fair share ......

It's really the only reason I got mine. I put the MMM on it so that it would not sit all summer and so that I do not need to find a place to store another tool for mowing. I didn't take any pictures, it took me 4 hours over 2 days to clean up after last weeks weather. Then it got windy and I spent another hour moving the drifts on Saturday.

I only had 6" of wet snow saturated with rain. I plowed off the pavement first then I just packed down the gravel drive by driving on it. Yawn...:yuck:

There gets a time or an age where 'fun in the snow' is no more.
It then becomes another 4 letter word.

That is when you live where 20/25 events occur annually and mixed with too many freezing rain interludes.
But then we are in a so called snow belt.

Just this last few days we've had daily dumpings, not a lot, just enough to cover that which the dog did.
But enough to cause many fender benders and foul language.
