Just joshing you. Your sister lives next town over. I was born in Lowell Mass General and my family is from Dunstable.
We blew mass when I was 1 or 2 and my father moved us to NH for guns and land.
We got serious snow right now and still coming down.
Probably end up being 8 to 9 inches.
Nice powder snow.

We ended up with about 10”’s of beautiful powder. Plowed great, brother broke a hydraulic line, when he hit a buried stump. Thankfully, I have a hose press and a few thousand in fittings, lol.
Was kinda cute, seeing blue fluid all over the snow.
Not sure what he’s using for hydraulic fluid.

The snow storm we got today sucked. It was very cold yesterday and it snowed last knight. It quickly turned over to rain after getting 4-5 inches. The rain passed through the snow turning it to slush. I ended up with a sheet of ice under the snow. That left me with almost zero traction. I have a flat driveway but was still sliding all over the place. I tried a few different ways to do this. The best results I got was to put enough down pressure on the plow to lift the front wheels off the ground. That got it done.
