Scott T...dog chain ?? I know what happens when you coil up an electric cord..or a rubber door mat !! <font size="-2">It was a bear to unwind that mat years ago.</font>
Since no one else is posting snow pics!
The old 149 doesn't get used much any more, so I thought I would give it some run time after yesterdays 7" snow fall.

Frank C. I like that clipart.
Charlie P. Since you don't use that 149 and snowthrower very much anymore I'll trade you my 147 and $300.00 for it as pictured. (Of course the 147 is a long way from running.)

Here's a fall pic I took yesterday before the big leaf removal job today. This is the 124 I kinda got for free here recently. It had a 59M shredder attached and I got real lucky. It ain't much on the eyes right now but runs smooth as a sewing machine.
It runs so well I've been working it as a puller. Narrow frames aren't my favorite to work on but both of my 124s are two of my best running and easiest operating tractors. I just mow with the other one.
Hey Charlie.....I guess a thick layer of leaves doesn't compare to 7" of the white stuff. I will take the leaves any day though. I don't think there are many cub owners in North Carolina that even own a snow blower/thrower....maybe a misplaced yankee or two.

Marty-
I haven't forgotten but these guys know snow. Last year was a hard winter for these parts as well. I'm sure a lot of guys around here would liked to have had snow removal equipment. The snows were gone in a week or so though if I remember correctly. Being a southerner I don't understand why people live in such cold climates. It sure makes for some great pics though.
Leaf removal is a bigger problem for me. I hauled seven loads to the woods with cub and large yard trailer today. I took my backpack blower to the woods with the first load and left it. When I got there I'd back up and the blower empties the trailer in under a minute. I load the trailer using two leaf rakes and that takes about 5 minutes. It's a pretty fast way to move a large amount. The trip there and back is the most fun especially coming back in high gear.

Frank C. Angel supllies me with lots of kitty and other type clipart. I wouldn't object if they were to be put in the clipart section.
Charlie P. We've only had the chilly and wet weather. Thank goodness for that.
Dennis F. I mowed everyone's (nearby neighbors) lawns about three weekend ago. The lawns have stayed nice and low since. Now I need to be able to take the deck off the 125 and get the snow removal crew ready. Between weekend work and weather this hasn't been done yet.
