Time to blow out the driveway.....(who can think of mowing??)
Original Message   Mar 24, 2005 8:32 am
Hey Guys,
We wake up today and find our driveway is under a few inches of snow.......
Time to get the orange monster out for perhaps the last time of the season.

Makes one think of the Robert Frost poem........"Miles to go before I ..........mow."

I resign myself to the fact that mowing is still weeks, if not months away...

Done.

Grass is nowhere to be seen, but the driveway is clear. Wasn't that much, but wet. It perhaps would have melted off soon, but I hate to drive on it...nice to drive on black pavement without turning wet snow into ice paths.
Can't wait to summerize the new Ariens and turn my attention from Ariens orange to eXmark red.

I did my driveway and 3 neighbors this morning of 6" of wet heavy snow. My tractors on blocks anyway. I'm waiting for new front tire spindles to come in from the Simplicity dealer. I need a little time anyway but, bring on the spring.

Was it winter??? Down here the good thing is you only have to mow every other week in the winter.  But to tell you the truth I'd rather mow in the spring or summer every week, then to mow in the winter every other week.  The weeds are a pain in the neck to cut! We have this weed here it grows really fast and it gets a purple flower on it, man with brand new blades you have to go over it 3 times!  I been meaning to stop in a find out what it is called. I think it grows 6 inches a week, well have a great weekend.  Later Mike
