The last 2 days have been rough James.

We have over 9 feet of snow in our front yard. I spent 7 hours on the snow blower today but it was snowing so hard that by the time I made the 65 yard run to the road and back with the big snow blower the snow completely covered up the tracks I just left. Today was one of those bad days. And to answer James, yes, I am too old for this, especially day after day.

No way to get into town to the shop. I think Robert was the only one that made it in as he lives not far from the shop. That is why he is my main man. I spent a couple of hours getting the snow off my truck and Kase's truck this morning, and clearing as much of the snow out from in front of them. With Kase on the snow shovel and me on the snow blower we managed to get him out. But he called back and said there were cars in the ditches about every 100 yards.

The county snow plows plow the road leaving high berms on each side of the road. The snow berms on each side of my drive are at least 6 feet high. And that is 6 feet on top of the snow and ice from earlier this week and last week so probably 9 feet or more down to the ground. We have a measured 9 feet of snow up against the back wall of our house. The dogs stay on the roof most of the time they are out.
We have had some bad snow days in the 28 years we have been here not nothing like this. And March is normally our snow month so it ain't over yet. Pictures tomorrow.
