Reply #35: Check post #29. The pic is from Japan, but they use those giant UP-snow blowers

to "plow" the road.

I'm from the western LP myself. One year when I was in high school we had a horrible winter. It started snowing on Christmas and it didn't stop until the end of January. We didn't have much school in January, and being cooped up with the 'rents for long periods of time without cable or the internet was not fun.

It got so bad that one of those blowers from the UP was sent down to us because there were roads, like the one I lived on, that could not be cleared any other way. The things were awsome.
