Havn't posted for a few weeks - - hey everyone!
Well snow plow season has apperently come, and gone. Following a very pithy
winter, with almost record breaking lack of snow fall... Chicago picked up
about 8 inches of snow in mid January. I went out and plowed 4 lots and
made a couple huidrid bucks.. not bad for a first year at the business.
However I ran into problems. I caused jsut as much damage to the truck as I
made in plowing snow. I struck a phone pole in a narrow alley and dented
the drivers side door , and smashed the drivers side mirror...now held on
with duct tape... <grumble>
And I have other mechanical problems, which will be described in following
posts <grumble>
I found out that the right side power angle cyl. fuild line coupling is
damaged... I had to refil the hydro fluid reserve 4 times. <grumble>
Winter in Chicago is probably over. Temps hit 51°F today... but then again
this IS Chicago... weather can change hourly. So I will see!
