We have a 8 foot tall and 65 foot long snow drift in the middle of our drive. Hit it at about 15mph, made it about 8foot in and stopped because there was 3 foot of snow on my hood and snow past my windows.....

Should be fun tomorrow...

Spent about 4-5hrs digging out today but didn't finish as I'm anticipating a plow to plow me back in anyway. Hopefully I'll get out tomorrow. Did have a lot of fun tubing behind a certain jeep though! Overall, a good day considering how much is out there!

I got my side walk done today and crushed down the mountains in the driveway with the dodge. Screw the Service Truck and the Wife 2wd Jeep. It will be days before either of them hit the road. Tomorrow I'm going to attempt to get the jeep out of the garage. I have a 30 foot "driveway" between the garage and the gate, then another 50 foot or so to the road. That 30 foot between the two has a soild drift 4 foot deep. And I dont want to shovel.....lol

Well after digging and plowing with the 4 wheeler for 2 days we have most of the driveway done. All the is left is the 4-6' walls of snow left by the State Plow Trucks. Glad they are out there and did a great job, but love the crap I have to dig out.

That looks cold!
I was driving through the whole storm, had to work friday and saturday night at the bar and go to a ride along with MDTA on saturday morning at 7am (got a whole 2 hours of sleep that night). Nothing was undriveable, just had to use a little extra precaution.

Took a trip to home depot yesterday to get a few things for my plumbing project and to get food (rats) for the little ones and my 4wd stopped working after dis-engaging it in the home depot parking lot since that was the first piece of blacktop I saw since Friday and i had to make some sharp turns. Put it back in 4wd and it never engaged. I'm guessing a vacuum line but I need to get it fixed before the next snowfall.

I did however get my water filtration system installed and running (the wiring isnt pretty but it works for now). At 12:50 last night, I got a hot shower that didnt smell like rust! Not that you guys would get excited over that but I sure am.

By that point I was not feeling my fingers. I did have a good time though. The picture is taken from a still shot in the video that I am still working on.

Here are the two that I have done so far, still have more to get uploaded.
