After 8 years of living in this dysfunctional HOA of about 20 lots, I finally got a snow plow and got it working. In previous years, I have plowed about 1.5 miles of road with either a rear blade or my 60" snow blower and my compact tractor. So now that I have all the tools, the HOA finally hires a plow service to plow our road.
Oh well, if thats what it took then that is fine with me. I'm sure there will be times when the snow is coming down faster than the service can keep up so the plow will be handy then and it was a good project fabricating the frame mounts and rebuilding the plow (I got it pretty cheap). I still need the tractor just for my driveway.
It was actually somewhat relieving this morning to walk out and see that the road had been plowed. I can sit inside and relax instead.
