Remote Western Roads and Snow

Not only do we get a fair share of snowWe get wind.

Sometimes, it's a lot of wind. When the wind and the snow happen within a short time frame, we get trouble.(This is my road... I didn't get any further on it at this point.)

Sometimes, it's a LOT of trouble.
(This is where my plow truck got stuck. Luckily, neighbors and I could pull it out. My hand is near the top of the drift.)
(And this is the blader-tractor pulling my SUV out.)

But, when the winds stop,
And the sun crests the mountains And the plows come, (County plow!)(Mom plowing a way to the school bus!)

Paradise is reborn.

Thank you!

A hearty THANK YOU to everyone who asked "where have you been?" and "why isn't your blog updated?".
To be honest, I wasn't sure anyone was really interested. A few zealous friends had "over-clicked" the ad buttons, and my account was suspended. I wasn't getting any comments to posts, and only a couple of followers to the site. So thank you to those who cared enough to ask for new updates. I commit to you that I will keep our Remote Western Town accessable to all of our out of town friends and loved ones.
