Mr. Sage, we have a snow shovel you can borrow. Want us to bring it up or ship it?

8 inches of snow on Monday. Tuesday (today) morning we woke up to an additional 18 inches, Today it snowed an extra 3 inches as we cleared, took around 3 hours. Power came back on around 8 pm tonight, off for 24 hours. Current temperature is 25°, predicted low is 19°. A good old fashion storm. :)

What kind of supplements have you been feeding your Ranger and Bobcat? Looks like they’ve bulked up some. :P

Paul, I put them on a diet of Chevron diesel. It promotes growth.

Ski I love the pictures of your freshly plowed driveway. It reminds me of when I used to do that at my family’s home in NH back in the 60/70’s. After I finished I would always have great satisfaction of a job well done..

I was wondering is this a “normal” winter for you?

We haven't had a "normal" winter for years - at least from our memory of living here for 29 years. Several years ago we had a "March Miracle". I ran the snowblower and cleared 29 days out of 31. I wonder how the new neighbors would handle that.

 

Our remembered  "normal" is the place looking like the photos beginning mid December and lasting through Feb. Last year I first ran the blower 25 Jan 2018. This year a couple small storms until this first weekend in Feb. Now it looks like winter.
