I broke down and plowed the driveway about an hour ago. I figured it will be easier to plow two small dump ons instead of one accumulated large one.
It is just starting to snow here right now.
of course Annie just went to town, too. she asked me if I wanted to ride along.
No thanks. I don't enjoy riding through a blizzard.. been there, done that too many times..
when I was fourteen years old, I drove my friend's dad's truck home from the woods with a load of long poles on it.
the load stuck way out the back just so there was enough weight on the front to steer the truck..
However, the drifts were across the road at about 4 to 5 feet deep. whenever I rammed through one, the front wheels would leave the ground. then i would have to wait a minuted until they touched again and I could proceed to the next one..
my friend was less fortunate. he had to ride one of the horses and lead the other one.
it was about a 12 mile trip..
took me forever to get home, took him a lot longer..
