A lot of plowing. First picture is right as you turn off the town road. The driveway goes to the right of my garage and up to the house on the left.

Here is my Kubota on the ice rink, and yes the snow is that deep behind it! Here is a photo of the flakes falling the size of golf balls. we got 18" last night with another 8"-12" tonight and -15ºF.

Yep that's two projects I've been thinking about, one is a cab and the 2nd to mod the blower, but I want it still on the rear... forward pull.
Right now I wear my ski gear so it's not that cold.

My tractor is a 1978 White 2-60, but really it is a rebadged Fiat 640DT MFWD (4X4) it's a 60hp diesel. Very popular tractor in Europe and the 2wd version is still built in Pakistan by Fiat/New Holland, so parts are cheap and plentiful.
I'm slowly rebuilding it while keeping it operational. In Fiat colours it would originally be orange as well.

Maxed out at about 12 degrees here in upper Bucks County PA, with gusty winds almost all day. Had to take a break from clearing the drive to let my face warm up.

Did some snowshoeing and went sledding with my dogs.



Now just hangin' by the stove:

Cool. Lived in Wayne for 20+ years until we sold our home last fall -- Paterson has changed much over the years... but still go to Geolottis Ice Cream place on the Paterson / Totowa border when it's a bit warmer...

Union at Cumberland! Ha, while in college I chased the girls in that neighborhood. There was a real dive at the other end of Union, the Wagon Wheel? maybe?

Awful. Seems like the eastern side of Canada and the US is getting nailed. Seems like the weather lottery is going against you. Lots of room to move out west. Assuming family and business keeps you out there?

[yellowperil]

Yeah, wouldn't be easy to move, family, business, age., etc. Guess I'll try to stick it out here. Good advice though, thanks

In a month or two all will be forgiven, sun will shine, be happy then.
