    Same here Larry. No town plow yet. We've chuckled many times in past "monster" storms when they've dragged the iron on almost bare tar... back n' forth... :D

    Got lazy last spring and didn't change the 2 gas filters on my kubota bx when I changed all other fluids and filters. .. yup, 3 a.m. this morning while plowing the filters clogged. Tried a little stabilizer but no luck; fortunitly I did have the filters on hand and was able to get the tractor back in the garage. She's runn'in great now.

    Jeremy. Is that sign there for the traffic? Or did your wife put that there for you to keep you on the "right" track? :whistle:

    Man am I lucky. My son in-law just came and is blowing out the driveway. My son plans to be here in the morning to do it again. Snowing and blowing hard here now. Don't know how he stands having that snow beat on his face.
    Nice to have family around.

    Small tractor with a 60" blade. Two ft+ of snow on the way and a 2300 ft rolling gravel driveway. Plus a bunch of other areas to plow with a barn and horses. This will be my last winter without a decent plow truck.

    Well we didn't get squat. When i hit the sack last night they were callin for 12-16" and 16-24" locally. I didn't get called into work until 6am and we only had 2". We waited for the last couple bands to blow through and started plowing the total of 3-4". All of you getting buried be safe!
