FIRST MAJOR SNOW OF SEASON


Just two short days after outfitting Dad's 4-wheeler with a snow plow, a major storm cut through the midwest. Because we are a little further south of Hwy 30 than we were in Plymouth, we got much less than the expected foot of snow the northern part of the state received.  We only got about 5 inches of snow . . .

Which was ENOUGH for Charles to - YES! - get out the 4-wheeler and plow the driveway. Here he is on the 4X4 pusshing snow out of the way so that we can get our cars out.

As you can see in the bottom picture, we have a much longer driveway than our house in Plymouth, with a much larger parking area. With a two-stage snow blower with a 28-inch mouth, it takes Charles nearly 3 hours to clear the driveway.

With a 50-inch plow blade and Dad's 4-wheeler, it took Charles about an hour - that includes all the playing around he did:)!
