Plow Truck
My old 1996 GMC Z-71 has been stored pretty much in the last 5 winters. I hate the salt and I never plan on buying another truck so I kinda babied it. It has 31,000 miles on it and I bought it brand new. I decided to put the plow on it just to see if the plow still worked. I never took the plow off so this week we decided to pull it out of storage and get some use out of it.
Because I have a John Deere with a snowblower, another tractor with a blade, and a mini loader, I just didn’t need the truck or plow. However, the below zero temps helped me decide the warmth of the truck cab and the nice radio was pretty nice after all, haha. So until it warms back up to 32 degrees I might just keep using the truck and plow.
Atlanta Snow Storm
Until you spend time in a big city for a while you can’t imagine a real traffic jam. But because we have gone to D.C. over 25 times and an average visit of two weeks that works out to 50 weeks of us seeing real traffic jams. It does not take much to stop 8 lanes of traffic. Only one time we sat for over an hour in a traffic jam. We were just one mile from the National Zoo. Finally, we made a u-turn and headed out of the city and said we would come back another time. We have been to the zoo several times. Now seeing the terrible traffic in Atlanta we just feel so sorry for all those people trying to get home. Even a bad traffic day in Gaylord is nothing compared to city traffic!
Have a great Wed.
