Takes a licking and keeps on ticking...

My wife took this photo of me attempting to clear a path on our driveway yesterday afternoon...from the amount of snow that fell this will be a two or three day operation to clear away all the snow around the house. Anyhow, this morning she discovered that she left the Z6 outside all day and overnight - we were so caught up on the snow removal that - oops..... Good news...camera, lens, operational and no obvious problems..

yes...cuts through the snow like a hot knife through butter..I have a second one -different brand -in the garage that is a pain to use with my arthritic neck and back....Then again I have Hanusia on shovel..

Any snowblower that starts and runs reliably is a godsend

I have not lived in snow country since 1983 and one thing I do not miss is the malfunctioning, obstinate beast of a second hand snowblower I bought when living in Saratoga Springs, NY.

It's pretty - but I'd struggle to live there! Great photo!

Was the camera just out in the cold, like on a covered porch, or was it snow covered when discovered?

You get used to it and learn to love it...besides the cold preserves us old fellows.

it was in the breeze way, far enough away from any snow fall.

Better you than me!

LOL...ah come on Mike...live a little..

We bought a fancy-dancy Toro snowblower two years ago. It has worked well as I only used it once last winter and not at all so far this winter. It has a plug-in electric starter and starts instantly even after sitting since the previous winter.

With above-normal temps expected for most of the next two weeks it may not get used at all this winter. But we do still have February and March.

Glad to hear about the toughness of your Z6.

Yes...I was surprised that it survived the lonely overnight abandonment..

There was a young man from Quebec
buried in snow to his neck.
When asked "Are you Friz?"
He replied," Yes I is,
But we don't call this cold in Quebec!"
