We're too far north to have gotten hit with this last showfall, but the road was narrowing between the snowbanks & I had to get out & widen it with the bucket. Now I see one of my tire chains is coming loose & I'll have to wrestle with that to get it hooked back together I also gotta adjust the back blade before I do any more snow moving with it.

At least winter is entertaining.
