Boy! Did I have fun !
Original Message   Jan 24, 2005 3:59 pm
  I didn't go out to clear the driveway until 5:00pm yesterday,and then I came in at 6:00 to get ready to watch the Pats beat the Steelers. I liked the way the Toro 1128OE handled the deep stuff. I only used first gear most of the time,but it was still fun. I did enough to be able to get out this morning and get to the bank;then I spent about another hour and a half finishing up. I hated to come in!  Wife took some pics,but I don't  know how to post them here.  I swear the machine was enjoying it as much as I was!

OT post them on photo bucket.com and it also preps them for URL posting, very easy.  Make them smaller on the photo bucket site.  Click the third box from the left on the tool box (it has a pic of a mountain range and the sun on it) or two from the left of smiley icon and cut and past the URL listing on the photo bucket page.  That simple.  Enjoy.

I had a ball too.      We had over 2 feet of snow (with much higher drifts)  and the perfect consistency for snowblowing.  My machine was easily shooting it up 2 stories and over 40 feet.  With the howling wind I'm surprised we did not lose power.  On the MA coast many places recorded gusts over 80MPH.  I looked like a snowman when I cleared during the storm.  When the storm died down after the football game  I went back out to clear the drifting.   I was in a very happy mood!  Go Pats!     -Bob
