Default My new Trailer Parking Spot & Snow Blower!

Now I am certain that this title combining a trailer and snow blower has never been done.

We moved into a house several months ago with a bow shaped driveway which is great for my auto trailer but even with very careful parking the trailer stuck out a bit onto the actual driveway. We erected a new fence between the driveway and the road which gained us a whopping 4 extra feet of usable yard width versus the old zig-zag fence which was OEM with the house. We then had an area of grass partially bricked in which now serves as a spot for the trailer. It could also be used for 2-3 cars if the trailer wasn't there. It's also nice to have a real fence now with gates to keep those prying eyes away from my cars!
All the dirt will need to be reseeded after the thaw. It started snowing here about 7 hours after the workwas completed...now that's timing.





We only got about 2 inches here in Cambridge but it really is quite beautiful! My new snow blower arrived at 8AM today and even though there wasn't much snow left on the driveway, I had to try it out and it worked great! I love anything with a motor in it !!!!!!!!!!

Nice set up for the track car! Looks like we share more in common than just a turbo. That snow blower looks suspiciously familiar.

all looks good Dave, but you're missing a Panamera in your lineup...

You have nice toys Dave. You just need to come out of your shell and buy cars with more personality in their colors.

Ha ha. I'm working on becoming more extroverted.
Believe it or not, I was VERY introverted until I went to college,...nuf said.
