Got a little snow today so I got some orange out to do play in it and thought I'd take a couple pics and post for your enjoyment.

Very nice! I had my WD45 out today. We had about 2 ft in the last 2-3 days. Quite a change from the summery weather we had before. Temp was -38 C this morning. For you southern guys -40C and -40F are the same. LOL. I am an hr north of toronto so quite cool for us too!

Well Ed thankfully we haven't got that much and hasn't been that cold! Lol. We got about 4" and temps around 20*F with some wind. Wasn't enough to really need blading but still fun to get them out and play around this afternoon.

BPM 75, Mark, and Tom, great pictures. Tom, does that read March of 1969 on the edge of the photo? I'm with Shameless on the cab idea. It always seemed like I was tripping the bucket into the wind on ours.

Ben, you've got three nice looking tractors. I still like your narrow front D17 the best.

You all up north must have a different snow than we have .Dad had a tricyle W C and it would up between the front wheels and could hardly get it back to the shed.
