Should've seen it coming. The ground always rises as it freezes, afterall. But over the warmer months I'd become so used to driving under the breezeway between the house and my shop while plowing the driveway I had gotten out of the habit of checking clearance. So while backing in mid-range as fast as Clementine would go, the ROPS hit the trim and tore off a huge (five foot) chunk of 1" spruce. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif
I was hoping the wife wouldn't notice, but she came running out screaming that the entire house shook! /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif After surveying the damage (all cosmetic, thank goodness!), she shook her head and asked me not to park my tractor inside the house. /w3tcompact/icons/blush.gif
On the plus side, I now have plenty of clearance under the breezeway!
