Waldon Loader at work in Gaylord

Otsego County Road Commission – First snowplowing for 2010 . Todays picture shows me plowing a little snow with one of my compact Waldon Loaders . It is very small but perfect for playing in my driveway and my two neighbors driveways. But when temps dip below zero I tend to get the John Deere out of the shed with the nice heated cab and the nice stereo playing as the 84in Erskine Snowblower moves tons of snow in minutes. And after the snow is plowed I enjoy hopping on the Ski-Doo snowmobile and head down the snowmobile trail . But the problem is this picture is from last winter and I am still staring out the window with my nose pressed against it wondering and watching for that first good snowstorm.
The weatherman is saying maybe tonight we will get three inches and snow in the forecast for the next three days ! YIPPEE !!
TRAIN PROGRESS- Today I will finish the top main parts and finish building the front air horns. I will post a picture tonight .
Dancing with the Stars- Deb and I have enjoyed the season less than in years past. Everyone on the show works very hard to improve but at the half way point of the season the the best dancers should be left. This season the really good dancers have slowly been eliminated and they have kept the worst dancer . Reality shows are about ratings and drama and very little else . This just proves it as Bristol Palin continues to stay on the show til the winning night . Many people were upset last week when they voted off another great dancer . One fellow was so upset he went and got the gun and shot out his TV !! That is nuts ! I did think about going and getting a big rock and throwing it through our 72 in TV but had second thoughts when Deb reminded me it was football season ? ha,ha,ha.
Have a great Tues. !!
