Slip Sliding Away

It is very slippery today, 

one minute you are on top and next you start sliding

plan A put sand down

and try to get back on the road

that didn't go to well, the tractor just got deeper the wrong way

plan B, take the fence wires down, 

and drive into the field belly deep in the snow

It worked, back at the job of blowing snow

Lots of Snow

My camera didn't want to focus

but you can see the plow pushing lots of snow

worthy of a second run

Honestly it is so hard to see the road 

I stopped to take this picture

Here the snow came over the hood

people were wondering why the snowplow hadn't gone by

it had, it just filled in a lot more

Organizing and Checking

Marc is making good use of the

label maker that I got for Christmas

Phil was doing an annual analysis after the milk truck came  

everything was working well

24 hour Melt

This is yesterday morning, the melting had started already

There was a bit of a fog

This is today, lots has disappeared

Here you can really see it
