So after pulling and pulling and pulling on a very cold snowblower, I did actually think about rolling it into the room with the woodstove to warm it up... it was very cold and I can only imagine the viscosity of the oil was somewhat "thicker" than usual! But it did go ... and the driveway was cleared and I headed out to Sault Ste Marie... to start all over again ...

Even in the rear view mirror ... it is a pretty place to be... summer, fall, winter and spring!!

Seems that the Sault got snow also!! So once again the blower was chilled from a ride in an open truck ...

But if you think that the blower had a cold ride, how about this guy... riding a few feet in the air... down Highway 17...

that's right... hwy 17.. the trans canada.... It made me shiver just watching him driving the team from on high!! Never mind the fact that he didn't have his seat belt on!!

But he made it to the sideroad.... and was riding tall in the pallets the last I saw him!
