Default More morning pictures

Ok no Elk this time, but yesterday on my way home I stopped off at the local equipment rental place and noticed that they had quite a large pile of heavy snow just sitting in the lot. At the same time I was having trouble getting up the hill to work since the county didn't get up to plow when it was starting to turn to slush. So I asked the owner if I could use the bobcat to load up my truck, he said sure. Another great thing about small towns where everyone know each other. He not only let me run the machine but he didn't charge me. I told him I wouldn't charge him for hauling off some of the snow, and he just laughed.

It was the Cat Skid Steer machine of which I had not run before, but after getting it started I loaded up the truck and headed home. It weighed in right at 2000 lbs according to the scales I ran across. That should help going up the hill. This morning I flew up the hill, partly because of the added weight and mostly because everything froze again overnight. Crunchy means traction.

The great thing about loading snow in your truck is that you don't have to unload it. By the time it melts you don't need it anymore.

Here are a couple more pics from the snow slowly coming off the metal roof.
