Round One done
Just finished doing round one of plowing. Still snowing though.
I use the truck for the bulk work and then use the tractor to clean up once the sun comes out. https://www.dropbox.com/s/n8mcksds1vch8bd/plow1.jpg |

Can you leave those cool lights on the truck without the plow? Nope. It all comes off with the plow. The older type plow setups *did* leave the plow frame and lights on the truck. Only the plow itself came off. However, whatever government agency in charge of such things mandated that the attachment frame also has to come off. I think this was about 7 years ago. So now, there is a receiver mounted under the front bumper (and bolted to the frame) that the whole thing connects to. |

And figure out a way to keep the plow lights. Do I see a couple rifles in the rear window? Good on ya! |

We are in severe drought so may not have lawn this summer. |

Cars. Just finished refilling the pool after the repairs and turned on the filter. Have to get Stabilizer now. Gym and then pool store. |

The first year I had the plow I thought about it because a guy who works for the Public Works Department in the next town over said I would get $65/hr plowing for the town. They base the rate on the size of your truck and plow. Thing is, all the "newness" and "fun" of plowing quickly goes away. Now it's a chore just to do my driveway. |

We are in severe drought so may not have lawn this summer. I saw some satellite images of the drought stricken areas out there. Not good. Hope it's not going to become a permanent thing. |
