A New Tool

After carefully weighing the pro's and con's,  researching the brands and features, searching for the best price and most important of all, being in complete agreement that this is something that this family actually needs, we purchased this brand new ATV with winch and snow plow. Larry drove almost an hour to get a better price and he brought it home today. He said the man had sold 5 of them this week-end. Now, we can all be sure that we won't get any significant snowfall  for the next 10 years!

We are impressed at the power this machine has and it is very clear that this is not to be driven by children. I am very thankful that Larry is willing to wear the helmet. We bought a second one for the kids to wear if they get a ride. He has spent the afternoon plowing the driveway. We are very grateful for this new tool and hope to get many years of safe plowing, deer hunting, and firewood hauling with it. We will keep it in our big garage out of the weather to extend its life.
