After six months down, the ol' cub came to life... She had me stumped, but thanks to everyone on this board and Dave Kirk, my 1250 started up, and made me proud!!! Luv my cub..

Last night before I headed into work to plow I-80, I decided to jump on the old 1200 and push the whopping 1 inch of fresh snow out of the driveway...With the headlights on...Forget who said the lights aren't the greatest to see with,but they were right. I went to a different type lights though and it helped a bit more. My bulbs are clear and brighter than the standard bulbs with the lines on them.

Not to sound like a wise guy or anything, but I find that kinda odd. For what they are, I think the lights on mine (123, 125, 106, 109) are pretty darn good. I just use the plain old 4411 bulbs.

Have never had the 70 with headlights out after dark so I don't know about it.

MOVING SNOW

Supposed to get more today, and Sunday.

WOW I'm ready for spring!!

I guess it depends on where you live as to how you feel about snow. We have had record snow falls this year in NC and we have loved it and want more! Of course we went a few years without any real snow, you know, the ones that are here this morning and gone this evening. I guess if you had it every year all winter long you would get tired of it. Just send it our way. I would love to get more time in the seat of my 149 pushing snow. Hope you get dug out and get a break from it soon. Are you gettin saddle sores? :biggrin2.gif:

Wow, and we thought the 11 inches we got was something. When you put it like that, I like what we have. I am in the foothills of western Carolina so our weather is pretty nice. We have about a month give or take of really cold weather (in the teens and 20s) and in the summer we mostly stay in the 70's-80's with some bad days in the 90's but for the most part I would say it's nice year round. Up until Feb we where staying in the 50's dipping to the 40's at night.
I was raised in VA and I remember back in the 60's and 70's we had some similar snows like you are talking about. I have some pictures of front loaders removing snow from 8 ft snow drifts that filled in the roads that cut through the hills. I like snow but I don't think what you are having would be to fun. It would completely shut this area down, you should see what 4 inches does to this area. Cars all over the road, in ditches, etc..... not to mention no milk or bread left in the stores!
Hope you get dug out soon, and hopefully spring is on its way. But I still would like to experience some real snow like that here, just once, just to see what it is like.

I don't get much snow here and I get sick of it pretty fast. well that and the cold. I used to live in Iowa and loved the snow, snowmobiling and other stuff. I'm just not used to it anymore. I wish spring was here.

Today I put my new kwik way loader on my 129. It originally came off of a Gravely. The guy I bought it from had it on a 149 it went on pretty easy though. I'm gonna have to figure out something for weight on the back before Summer though. Here are the pics.:biggrin2.gif:
