This is the vehicle we use to plow our 1/4 mile of steep, narrow Class IV road...when it starts. It hasn't started since before our last storm, which left about a foot of snow. This is what it sounds like on a good day...
Today is not a good day. Today is a What Are We Doing Up Here? kind of day. Yesterday, when I didn't have to go anywhere...well, that was a good day. A We Live In Paradise! kind of day.
Do you ever play that "if I won the lottery..." game? Well, I'd buy that handsome, optimistic plow truck driver a brand new big beautiful beefy plow truck so he could saunter out the door with an easy mind, knowing his trusty truck would start right up, every damn time. And then he could enjoy his time plowing our road. And he could come back in the house with a still easy mind, to enjoy a cold beer, a hot dinner and a happy wife...every damn time.
In the meantime, there are no eggs left in the fridge and it looks like another sled to work kind of day.
