I've heard you fellers in parts of the US have been having a weird winter.Nice to see somebody around here has got some actual snow. Down here in good old RVa it has snowed 6 inches worth twice and within 2 days it looked like it has never snowed at all. We've gone from 6 inches of snow at 30 degress up to 65 degress worth of warmth within 32 to 48 hours. Yesterday March 8th I walked outside in a t-shirt and shorts because it got up to 74.
Wednesday was a rough day as you could see by the video. It was nasty out there. We ended up with 25 cm's of snow then today it gets up to plus 10c and all the snow melted now they are saying 10 more cm's of snow for tomorrow. Crazy weatherGood Lord man!!! The whole town is arse deep in snow and what my little friend doing,,, HE'S OUT PLAYIN IN THE SNOW!!!!! Man I bet the school kids hate to see you early in the morning like that,,,![]()
Yeah its been said around these parts that Mother Nature has a bit of Bipolar disorder and can't make up her mind what she wants to do.
Congrats on your new tractor David. Sorry to hear you haven't used it much. I've enjoyed the new 5740 this winter. I've seen worst winters but it's been good all the same. The tractor itself worked flawlessly along with all my mods. The air ride seat was a blessing and I'm glad I did that mod. It's hard to tell yet but that video could be the last for this snow clearing season. If we get anymore snow now it won't stay. I'll give it a few more weeks and tuck the machine away until next winter. Enjoyed seeing your photos nice machine and i ont thinkmive seen that many guns in one place before.I have been watching for your report all winter. I to got a new tractor for this winter a Kubota M 7040 to plow snow here at my home in Vermont. I have not started it since Nov. We have had 2 inch all winter. Last year I got 138 inches I think. I just hope it will stay up at your place.
It was great to here from you.

It takes me about three hours if it's a big storm and 1.5 if it's a small one. Man you guys are great to get everyone plowed out like that. You should do a video next. We all like tractor video'sSo how long did that route take you to complete?
Most of the neighborhood love it when my buddy Tony (he has a Bobcat W/Kubota heart) and I hit the trail. It takes us about 2 hours to take care of 13 houses plus about 1/2 mile of private road and my Mom's path to her horse pen, when I'm all by myself it is about 4.5-5 hours.
If I can figure out how to do the video thing on here I willIt takes me about three hours if it's a big storm and 1.5 if it's a small one. Man you guys are great to get everyone plowed out like that. You should do a video next. We all like tractor video's![]()
