Hi everybody: Vermont got hit pretty hard with Winter Storm Stella. That's always a good excuse to play a little, I got the old 1938 Allis Chalmers Model B out and moved some snow.

That brought back some memories. When I had the farm I used to use an Allis WD-45 to haul the wood back in on a trailer.
I got out in the woods one day, got loaded up and the battery was dead. I had to hand crank it. That was one scary moment as I had heard of people breaking fingers, hands and arms cranking old cars and tractors. Thankfully that old girl fired right up.
I was taught to never put your thumb out when hand cranking and to use the palm of your hand.
I miss the snow in Michigan like I miss a colonoscopy. :)

I get on Facebook with my cousins from Michigan and they bitch and moan about the brutal snow storms. But then they post about fun adventures playing in it. I guess its all how you look at it. My family left Michigan when I was 11 years old. I remember walking the 3 blocks to school in knee deep snow. But I also remember what a blast it was sledding down the hill next to our house.
