Snow Finally got some snow

[ernemats]

My tree farm is just a forest of whatever trees grow there naturally. Mostly poplar, maple, oak, beech and black cherry.

speaking of tree farms, I live in the middle of a 127 acre xmas tree farm(we don't own the farm, just our 8 acres)...I use both my Farmall/belly mower and the PT/4' mower to keep the grass and weeds low on the access paths for more enjoyable walks around the place........and it's snowing here as I type! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

i just finished plowing,this plow works great since i added the pucks on the back of the blade last year. i even do my walks now,works good backwards just tilt it,and it takes the snow right off right down to the concrete. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Today, 1/19/5, we finally got our first snowfall for this Winter! About 1/2 inch, but with the Lug Tires on my PT-425, I was able to plow right through it!! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif


PS: TV reports say that "most area schools will be closed tomorrow"!!!!

1/2 inch....not enough for us to even think about plowing here....just got 4" last night and now they are calling for 8+ inches Saturday into Sunday, it's always pretty during a snowfall and right after...but then I wish it would just melt away! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

We had a few inches yesterday. I figured last night was as good as any to get the 12 year old daughter out to plow snow with the PT425. She did a good job, got most of the snow off and also edged about 5' of the driveway for us /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

MR...good for you...can never start them too young!! Now don't forget to hand her the owners manual for the snow shovel to get those hard to plow places! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Oh, I didn't forget that. I showed her how to set the parking brake, choke the engine, get it started, test the brakes by trying to move back and forth. Then we got off to the side paying particular attention to the pedals and went and swept off the sidewalks and steps with broom and shovel. 5 minutes of warm up time for the PT worked out just right. Then off she went on the PT. I kept her away from the road and the van on the drive. But she did OK. Kind of timid about shoving the joystick past down to the float position, though. She stays in the down area too long and the front tires start coming up. She screams and lets go with the wheels a foot off the ground. I laugh hard. We went slow throttle and I walked along beside her. She had a good time and so did I. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
