The Mid-Atlantic States have sort of been left out of this Winter's favorite pastime. This has been especially hard for me, originally from a more snowy part of the country, with a new (to me) tractor and snowthrower setup to try out. Tonight we are predicted to finally get 6"-12" of snow in our area. Paladin and Oxford are in the wings and ready! Waiting on the bench "batting cleanup" in their warm-ups are Larrabee, Pancho, and Hopalong.

Here is Mr. Sig... only 10 months old but acts like a cranky old man that lives in the basement... have to warn visiters he'll say hello when he's ready, LOL!

Took the day off to shovel the 24" off my roof. Quite the task, only managed to get the first 7 feet off but it has to have lessened the load on my roof framing....right . Then I cleared off the snow that went from the roof to my walkway and decided to take a couple snaps before I got back into the house for a warm up session! The walkway: The roof (of course): Gotta make sure the mailman can get my bills to me: No sunbathing on the deck for awhile: My dome/tent shed...still standing: Have to be able to access any WH parts so a path to the shed is a must: Been keeping it off the top to prevent a collapse...but the sides are a whole new battle: Lets call it insulation: How about a romantic pic of my WH in the snow next to a lamp-post...can you see the WH: Better pic on my plow machine: The worlds best tires: The worlds best tires leave their mark: On one of the backyard trails: That's all from Sunny but cooooold Andover Connecticut!

Chloe's the queen here... trust me when I say, she knows it.

Here is a snap shot of the latest addition to our family...Her name is Stella. Born August 1, 2014 100% litter box trained from day one ....She Loves the kids , follows them every where and tolerates everything they do .

I have a couple of Beagles Emma is on the right and is Bruno's Mom. Typically they aren't allowed on the furniture but sometimes they forget.. I wasn't off the couch for two seconds and they decided to make themselves comfy. They are both very friendly though Bruno is more of a people dog... Emma's best friend is FOOD and if given half a chance she'll take it right out of your hand. (not mine though) Then there is Kia, the cat I rescued at work. She was born in the wild but is the friendliest cat you will ever meet.. The three of them get along great and you will often find the three of them curled up together in front of the wood stove. Kia even lets the two mutts sleep in HER bed..

Our girl Trixie, about 12 years old.Came here one day and announced that she was adopting us and would allow us to care for her from then on.

I finally added a 1054 to the collection. I have been looking for some time now and found this beauty. It is an original, 1 owner unit. Everything works including the tail light and generator light. I am Happy, Happy, Happy

Oke's favorite pastime! Considering the breed, it is his favorite time of year.

I am proud to introduce my little girl "Bonte". She came to us as a previously abused stray and lived in my shop office for the first few years (our old crotchety house cat was not interested in sharing). She would hide behind a life size cut-out of NASCAR driver Bobby LaBonte until I sat down at the desk, then would feel it was safe to come out, thus the name Bonte. The old cat passed away a few years ago and now she is Queen of the roost.

This is Mabel when I brought her home 2 years ago. This is her now after a hike in a snowstorm. This is my 14 year old dog,Mischief, when she was in better health a few years back. This her more recent on an early morning road trip. She is not a morning dog now.

Its been moved to where she wanted it. She likes it there...... She said its cute

Unfortunately, Chessie will be grown up by the time your son is 5. We have three old cats (15 years old) that sleep most of the day, and eat the rest of the time. They are indoor cats and have never known a good day's work. But I wouldn't trade 'em for anything. Here's two of them. The third is probably in the kitchen eating!

Well it's 0 degrees and there's nothing else to due so I decided to re due the barn. I sold some tractors and move some out for other members to enjoy. Don't worry everybody I'll fill the barn back with more wheel horses tractors eventually. The loader with attached forks worked great for putting tractor in the rack and as well taking them down. I started Saturday at 10 am to Sunday 3am. I was frozen as the wind chill was -15 but I'm from Buffalo where use to these winters...

All- Sorry about the poor quality of the video however when you ask the wife to take a video of anything tractor action related you take what you can get. This is a few days after clearing the driveway and 60+ mph winds blow it back on the driveway. It was pretty crusty and hard but the blower cleaned it up pretty good. Snowblowing feb 2015.MOV

I have koi,aquarium catfish,2 Maine coon cats,dogs,lizards and Mali uro.

Standing tall here in Richmond, VA, waiting on the snowpocalypse.... (It's about time!!!)

Rosco is 6 1/2 yrs old Malone is 12 yrs old This is Sponge. He's a 9 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback This is Spud. He's a year old this month. Him and Rosco are my buddies.

My wife and I have two golden retreivers and an orange cat... This is Ellie, she'll be two this spring Here we have Josie (dog - she's 6) and Ari the cat. Ellie on the wheel horse...

Here is Bailey the queen of the castle. She is seven.

This is our little west highland terrier , Skye , she is 2 years old and sadly she is totally blind , we also have 2 parrots

We just bought a Chesapeake Bay Retriever for our son. He is 4 1/2 and we wanted to get him a pet to grow up with. Her name is Chessie. I would like to know what types of family pets y'all have?

Here's pictures of the pond,dogs,Mali lizard and pet whale I forgot to add.....

you just cant stop progress. after a long fight i finally decided I had to do a Business page. seems like everybody is on there now. Oh well.

On later year horses Toro switched over to a nice numbering system. First 2 digits of serial # represented the year backwards. 49 = 1994

got this one finished up and back together yesterday, sorry but forgot to get pictures, this is the only one I got, will add a shot after its painted.

And cold out side. Brrrrrr. Glenn

In a pinch, you use what you have. I have used nails instead of cotter pins many times, then I bought a pack of assorted hairpin cotter pins and haven't used a nail or regular cotter pin for that matter since.

This is sam, he's border collie cocker spaniel mix. Its tough to get a pic of either of us without the other there.

Morgan 10, Mollie 11, Tobie & Charlie 5

For me will be my Trusty C-81 with Plow and my GT14 with Snow Blower. If they fail then I'm packing up and going to Florida.....

Just thought I would post this picture.

So am I the only one that has their eyes set on a new horse to buy with my tax returns? I found a 416 hydro on Craigslist the other day and if it's still on there when I get my federal taxes back I'm going to go look at it.

So aM I sick? Do I need a Dr? It looks so much at home in the house.... I was surprised when she got home the girlfriend didnt say much other than it doesn't look right over there in the corner...It belongs in the great room. Its more open.....

Got my d250 all set up. Had my first snow with it the other day. All i have to say is wow this thing is a beast. Supposed to get more tonight. Ill try to get the wife to take a video of this thing in action

Still have both the dog-eater and the snow-cannon. There just has not been the opportunity this year to use them!

Watch out what you wish for John!

Super cool Shawn! I got to come down to see you when the weather gets warmer.

Very nice collection!! Your gonna scratch the hood on that silver one. I sorta like those ones. Your gonna need a bigger barn. lol.

Thanks for the video. That tall plume created by the 2 stage reminds me of a locomotive chugging through the snow.

'Cause the Work Horse is new to the herd, tried a 4" snow push. Other than a little mowin' the Horse hasn't tried a plow on till today. I added the dial-a-height to the Horse, and shortened the lift link to keep the blade from hitting an embankment leaving the barn. The dial-a-height makes a big difference on my gravel drives. The 16 hp Briggs 2-cyl performed flawlessly. With the forecast as is, we plow every four or six inches. Easier. Drives are long, gravel. Sold my snowblower, just didn't trust rock tossin'. Those Horses in the Northeast will have as much as they can handle. Do you Northerners plow/blow incrementally? Finished snowing, only 5" or so. The Work Horse worked it's hoofs off painlessly.

The Ms. doesn't see one different than the other. The Horses live in the barn with all of us. Bank barn, the Horses come 'n go in the two back barn doors where the furry horses used to bed down.

It looks like you need to invest in some new "roofing" tools Mike.. http://avalanche-snow.com/

great collection

nice set up there Craig. It Is a pusher.

Looks like it belongs there Jeff!!! I don't have any Wheel Horses in my house but I do have two early 70's Honda dirt bikes in my Man Cave. I'm looking at them now as I make this post

I use screws to tighten up the battery terminals. But I'm also a farmer Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Something here should work. Can't wait to see what that little Sears iron 2 wheeler will do. The new 520 w/ heated cab will be my go to machine on cold days. The Yammy 4wheeler is for clean up on warm days. The C-125 is the back up blower. Of course the two long handles always work.
