Tire chains in transit. Can't wait!

[Sumpter]

I widened the wheels and put the chains on two days ago. I am glad I did because it is snowing now and expected to get over a foot by Tuesday. Whew!!!

If you are a rookie like I was when I put my chains on the first time allow yourself plenty of time to fit them. There are about thirty-six ways to put tire chains on the hard way. I know. I tried them all. A hundred pound tire chain is like handling one hundred pounds of Jello.

Oh, I'm a rookie alright, so I'm expecting it will take a few tries to get it right... although, my dad claims they're easy to install, so I just may make him prove it!

That's the way to do it. Just tell him after he does one side that you're still not sure if you got the knack of it.

Just maybe someday .. I will buck snow with my FEL... If there was another use for a snowblower BG I'd have one!! I love to watch those video's of the powder being thrown out.

That was just plain cruel. As I look out the window, the river is already frozen over. Soon the lake will follow... and I'm talking about Lake of the Woods. That's a big lake to freeze solid enough to drive on! Oh well, I'll just have to make the best of it and go ice fishing for Walleye after New Years.

Such is life when you live on a giant ice cube.

Looks like you got a horse. They're good for snow up to three feet. Maybe more. And they keep your butt warm.
