WHGuy413 2,750 #1 Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) We finally got a little plowable snow. Alex texted me about 6 times today while I was at work wanting to know when I was getting home so he could plow. I finally got out and him and his older brother Aiden headed out and plowed my driveway and the path to my parents house. I really could get used to this. Alex on his 1077 and Aiden on my Bronco 14. They quickly worked out a system. Alex plowed with a straight blade and Aiden came behind him and did the clean up. The path between the 2 houses has never been so big, you could drive a Mack truck down it. They had a blast which is all that matters and I enjoyed just standing in the driveway watching. After all this is there 3rd year plowing snow so Maybe next time I can sit in the nice warm house and watch from the picture window 😂 Edited January 7, 2022 by WHGuy413 3 21 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike B Haha you may go broke feeding them. They have received driveway job offers from a bunch of people. As much as I would love to load up the trailer with the tractors and be their support vehicle I am on call for plowing for my job and they split their time with me and their mom so my luck all the storms would happen when they were gone and I would get stuck with their plow route!

Gregor 4,847 #6 Posted January 8, 2022 Two snowblowers are better than one also, but marginally. Makes me wish I had a plow tractor put together. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rjg854 11,451 #10 Posted January 8, 2022 Until I got into I had a 39" Craptsman Professional snowblower I used for years. That and a Bolens Huski Gardener, 2 wheeled plow, for my 1/4 mile driveway. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike B Send ‘em here not to Sandwich…well I eat all the food here so maybe not. Very cool @WHGuy413, we only have one plow but two tractors here so I plowed on the 520 and my brother buzzed around a the 607 for a few…then it got cold.

c-series don 8,808 #13 Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) @WHGuy413Those are some of the best pictures I’ve seen here in a while. They really put a smile on my face! I first started plowing snow with my Work Horse in 1984 when I was 14. For Christmas my parents got me a plow, I plowed my lawn customers driveways in the neighborhood. I liked it so much that when I was done I would plow the neighborhood basketball court (even though nobody would be playing!) just because it was a clean smooth asphalt surface! Because of that I’m still in the snowplowing business! It’s nice to see kids out there getting it done, and having fun. Just dug up these pictures from 84 or 85. In the first picture I have a insulated Wheel Horse hat, wish I still had it! Edited January 8, 2022 by c-series don 4 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHGuy413 2,750 #16 Posted January 8, 2022 Thanks for sharing all the great photos! I swear I don’t get much seat time anymore. They mow and bring in the firewood too. Well not today cause they are at their moms house. I just got back from fishing. Guess I will head out and fire up a horse and plow to the wood shed and bring some wood in while it’s nice out! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
