We set a record and maxed out at 30+ inches. Been on the Bobcat 743 all day helping the neighbors.
Can't show any pics. File is too big. I will try posting on the other forum if you are interested in seeing my fun!

Last 48 hours have been pretty rough here. VDOT and the county didnt do much on the secondary roads and still havent. The majority of the plowing in my area has been done by people on farm tractors, mine included. I got stuck twice yesterday on the 100 horse turbo Kubota M8950 DT and once in my F250 4wd diesel feed truck. I was able to get myself out of the ditch once with careful application of differential lock and had to be dragged out once on the Kubota. My partner had to come get me with the John Deere 6400 in the feed truck and drag me up the hill at the river farm because I didnt give him enough lead when he took off ahead of me and I lost momentum. I was able to return to work today after 2 days of non stop plowing, snow blowing, shoveling and Baby Momma feeding. I am sore as hell and exhausted. But we are holding up well and will make a few bucks on driveway plowing jobs on the side. My partner will be plowing the runway and emergency helo-pad at the Front Royal Airport tomorrow with the John Deere 6400 and v-blade so they can reopen and they pay quite well. We have been blessed that all the Baby Mommas and little ones have survived thus far and no new ones were born during the blizzard. The barn cats also continue to thrive and knock on wood the equipment is holding up. The Kubota and feed truck both fired off immediately and ran well at 9 degrees this morning at 0800....

What a mess, Tim. I'm glad the weather hasn't claimed any lives on your farm. It's hard to imagine that this July it will all be a distant memory.
