Do your lawn mowers have horizontal crankshafts?   maybe you can put on some type of extension, attach whiskbrooms to it and use it as a snow sweeper  :roflsmiley:

We still have gotten no snow here in Colorado.

It's killing me.

White tails are easier to find when the snow comes in on the plains.  Right now they are just hunkered down in the corn fields.

Can't hunt mountain lions without snow to track their footsteps.
Lion season opened Nov. 19th so I am jonesing to go and track my next lion.
Maybe I can get two in the same year.

We got some snow here.
About an inch here in Salida.

I spent yesterday sheathing  a garage I'm building in Jefferson Colorado.
On the roof in the wind at --25 most of the day.

Unfortunately, I had to work and couldn't go lion tracking.
Same with today. At least it's supposed to maybe hit 32 (without the wind of course).

We had a foot of snow on the ground but it got mild and the rain washed it all away. Had freezing rain last night, kids are off school today. Local body shops are now busy ! :grinyes:

 :pullinghair: A Fresh 12 inches on my deck.snowed from late saturday night till about 10;00 pm last night here in minnesota.had to shovel after the vikings game yesterday and also get my truck off the street before it got towed away because of snow removal,was buried in the snow bank,dead battery and buried in snow.  :pullinghair:

got it going and let it run for 10-15 minuetes,put it indrive and rocked it back and forth to get it out,hit the brakes and the pedal goes right to the floor.  :swear:

get it out off the bank and into my driveway finally and that is where it sits.by now it's gonig on 6'00 pm and finally gettitn done with everything look down the street and a ambulance is coming my way.i look three houses down and see a snowblower sitting in the middle of my neighbors driveway and right away i thought o no he stuck his hand down the shoot to clear snow out i walk down three and sure enough he took a chunk out of a tip of one of his fingers.how do i know this,i did the same bonehead move years ago and ripped the tip and shattered the bone in about 12- 15 pieces.
