  Looking a lot like Christmas

Where did you find snow this past weekend? Was in Oscoda this weekend and the rain seemed a little hard but no snow. The weekend before last I rented a cabin (Yule Log Cabins) on the Lake Superior shoreline in Christmas (about 400 yards from the casino). They were as warm there as downstate. Was peak color in U.P. that weekend-nice!

If you're looking for a snowblower in Michigan, I'd suggest looking in the Michigan Auto & RV shopper. It is a free newpaper available at many gas stations. Section A is cars & light trucks, Section B is RV's, bikes, sleds, trailers & big trucks and tractors'n stuff.

Not far from your local area is Jensen equipment just south of Millington on M-15. I buy and sell stuff to those guys and they seem reasonable and good to deal with. Kim Weiss is who I talk to. Nolan's is another dealer in Lapeer. I can't remember the name of third dealer also in your area that has lots of used implements. My dad bought a backhoe from them. Can't remember if it is on Dort highway/M-54. They have a huge lot with stuff spread out all over. Maybe I'm confusing them with Nolan's. I try to stay away from dealerships since I end up buying to much stuff.

S CHRAND,
The Landpride rear blades generally have a longer beam length between the 3 point and the pivot point. So, snow build-up shouldn't be a problem. If you have a cement or blacktop drive it will work great. For stone you definitely need shoes on the back blade and even then with heavy snow, the blade will dig in. I usually turn the rear blade at a tilt and operate it backwards so it doesn't dig in. I then use my FEL and backdrag it.

This year I'm going to try a 2 stage front blower on a 17HP lawn tractor with cab. I picked it up at an estate sale for $800.00.

A front mounted blower is definitely the best way to go if you can justify the cost.

P.S. I think Nolan's is the dealership with all sorts of used equipment laying around. With them, you need to know what you want.
