Let's see some snow removal pics from this snow storm Olympia !    

 

 We did not have much here in Greencastle, Indiana yesterday but it snowed from about 12:30 to    5:00 PM.

 

 We received  about four inches of snow but I did get out about 5:30 and cleared the drive.

I used the 314 Wheel Horse !

 

Let's see some more photos of your equipment!

You know, I was born and raised in Greencastle

I recall you telling me that before.      I still go to Humphrey's for parts.

I laugh every time I think about Humphrey's as my last name is Humphrey and I seem to be getting more and more into Wheel Horses.

 

Maybe when I retire I should start a Wheel Horse repair business.

You have no idea how much milk farmers were having to dump because the trucks were unable to get to the farm and the bulk milking tanks have to be emptied within 72 hours. Cows have to be milked and fed, farmers lose a bunch of money in situations like this.

I grew up on a Dairy farm.

 

We had to start dumping milk a couple of times, Once when we lost power and and could not cool the milk (but we ran the milkers with vacuum from the manifold of an old gas tractor), and once when the milk truck could not make it in time.

 

Not so much a 72 hour rule in our case but we simply started overflowing the tank. Our tank could hold 2 days worth of milk in high production times.
