I remember the blizzard that hit the great lakes states in 1978. Some people were snowed in for almost two weeks. We have lots of people born in 1979 with their birthdays about the same time.
such a great american dream story two young people farming the land and progressing in life together and the respect you have for each other is so nice grant treats you as an equal in every way possible even makes you start your own snow mobile
One of the most important pieces of equipment to have on any farm or ranch (and for a lot of other places, too) is a 4WD backhoe. Where I used to live, where AVERAGE annual snowfall was about 9 FEET, I was fortunate to have a neighbor who owned a 4WD backhoe. If snow got too deep for my heady duty snowblower (the snowblower could not throw the snow over the snowbanks when the snow depth was over 5 feet deep on the level), he would come over and dig out my driveway and paths to things like my firewood pile. The backhoe is so handy because it can use both its front bucket or backhoe attachment to move snow, and can use either or both to extricate itself if it gets stuck. If you don’t already have one on your farm (I suspect that you do), then that would be a good addition to your “smaller” equipment collection.
