I know its not case but I thought you guys would enjoy seeing our small snow compared to the rest of your guys posts. We had about 4 inches of blowing snow when these were taken. Since then we have had about 3 more inches with a possiblity for another 2-8 tomorrow.

Maybe it's just me, but I always thought there might be a law against pushing snow from your driveway out onto a public roadway. Figured if somebody came along and had a wreck right there, they might possible could sue for hitting an obstruction in the road that came from your property. |

I've known people ticketed for pushing snow in the road or across and not cleaning it up good enough here in NY. This is small town farm area not suburb. |

What part of IL. I'm in n.central and we might have got an inch if we're lucky. We need something to break our weather pattern so we can get some rain next spring. |

This is from last winter, but it's how I do it when I'm home.

Iowa has a law against pushing snow across a road. Rural mail carriers are charged with reporting. Have a friend in central Iowa that got fined for doing so. |

JW I'm from charleston IL and I we always make sure that the road is clean after we are done cleaning out the drive. I was just stalk pilling it at the end of the drive to keep from taking so many trips across the road and we always push it clear out of the way for the mail man. With the steep drive thats the only way we can push the snow to get rid of it because even the big tractor spins trying to push it up the drive. |

Good to know I"m not the only one out there on a 400. I push my snow around into a few piles, then the wind blows it on out to South Dakota and Nebraska for me!
So I use a "natural blower".  |

Hi guys; Happy New Year!
My son in law has a Case similar, if not exactly it, like the one on the left with the snow blower. I must say, what a well made, well designed piece of equipment it is!
