The drive way is a quarter of a mile long and this photo is a bit closer to the mail box.

Well whats the fun of that if it melts in a few days, its much more fun to have snow piled on top of snow piled on top of snow.
As I drive around at work I see many people that have left their water hoses hooked up  so they are now frozen and will leak when it thaws a bit. 
Its been cold here so the ground is actually starting to get a bit of frost in it just a little but its a start soon water mains all over town will be popping.

Ken, I'm stunned! That beautiful 45 around there somewhere and you were shoveling with a snow shovel?  That's messed up! Well, up here, we have snow on the ground for a minimum of 3+ months and have had it on the ground well over 4 and a half months. It CAN get old.

David Bradley 2 Wheel tractors
I have a Farmall Super A with a Plow and a 1988 GMC Dump truck with a Plow but when it comes to quick, easy clean up at my own place the Small David Bradley Two Wheel Tractor is so easy to use and get in and out of tight spaces, So, it's my first choice.... I've attached a video to give to an idea how good these old dogs can push snow. Believe Me Nothing Stops Them...Check out my You Tube Channel and you'll see what else they can do. DanO'

Hey Tractorbeam ........ I blow some paths around the yard for our two dogs ..... but I admit I never thought about cleaning the snow off the entire yard.
Good job.

This was last week. We don't get as much as you folks up in the Arctic but this was a bunch of snow for us. Single day record and also broke the February snowfall total in one day. Of course we are also getting it today, 14-16" on the ground so far and still coming down.

That was last weeks storm. Last nights drifted up against my shop door. I had to use the hand shovel to clear the door enough so I could get the tractor out. I'll have some more pictures later.

Looks like the trees are still holding on to their leaves. How's the mighty Kioti handling it all?

Those trees won't finish dropping leaves til they start putting on new.
I'm a bit embarrassed with my little tractor. I developed a problem with the joystick yesterday, it wants to flop over to one side. Everything still seems to work OK but it isn't right. Already talked to the dealer and will be making a trip in tomorrow morning to get it taken care of. I'll post up in the Kioti forum when I get a resolution.
