Growing up my dad always did our snow removal. We lived in the middle of the woods off of the main road and he had a truck not only for his carpentry work but also to survive in the winter. Now, being blessed to have inherited our homestead I have come to the conclusion that we need to buy a plough!
When I moved home to take care of my dad when he became terminally ill, I hired a great guy who would clear our driveway for a reasonable fee of $25. Then he moved and I have had several different plough guys who charged up to $75 each time they came. Now I have another bus driver who comes and charges me $50 each time, but he will wait to the end of the storm so he only charges me once.
But still this winter I am going broke as we keep getting snow. And more snow. It is falling out there now and we are expected to get ice too. How I am longing for spring!
And to hear the twitter of the birds and not the rumble of the plough truck! |
