See you have a supervisor on duty. Lot of snow there -- you can keep it there, too.

I wish I knew what I was doing with these pictures so you could see them better. This was a blizzard in Mexico, NY during February of 2007. I have a 6' wide blower on the back of my WD, and as you can see in the 1 shot, the snow is just a little deeper than the rear wheels. That was lots of fun, and the tractor performed great.

I think AC orange tractors look fantastic in the white snow. I have a great pic of when I was a kid and I was in the woods with my, (now), WC with my grandpa, brothers and cousins. It's one of my all time favorites.

I like the program PHOTOSHOP when working with pictures. You can do almost any changes to the picture. Guess there maybe other programs too.

Any you fellas have some specs or links on those snowblowers? Here in the Ozarks, it would not get used much, but sure looks like fun! Also, what a way to make a hit with the neighbors.

Why is there never time to do it right the first time, but always time to go back and fix it?

I bought this one used. It is an old Badger, single stage. Very heavy. It actualy works better as the snow gets deeper. 6' wide, 3 point hitch. I've forgotten how many years I've had it, but its been alot, like 15 or 20. My drive is about 200' long, and I can get from the garage to the road done in like 5 minutes. But then to do the turnaround, and move the cars and stuff, then more like a half hour. I used to do the neighbors drive, just so the tractor would heat up good in the winter. Their drive is about 800' long. Took a lot longer to that then mine. They moved and I have new neigbors, so It was a good time to give that up. 2 years ago I got a D-17, put a hitch on that, and now that is my blower tractor.More power, heats up quick with a thermostat. I'll post some pictures of that sometime.
