RE: Let’s go for a drive and see what’s happening up in the Blue Mountains. Had to head ...
I love being up in the woods when wether it is snowing or not. But my favorite is the snow. The plows clear these portions of the road pretty well so I just put it in 4X4 and take it easy. My bucket truck sits at over 17k lbs so it gets stuck pretty easy. We had rain all day and made a huge mess of things. I actually was knocking snow off the lines this morning and things got a little wild and I tripped a section of the line out... oops... I did see a couple nice arcs though. 😜😜
Haha, as long as those arcs don't arc their way into your body mate...Although if you were feeling tired at the time it would wake you up!
I'm off to the countryside this weekend man, I prefer it and less people to the city. I reckon snow would freak me out, driving in it I mean, but I guess it's what one gets used to.
I got a good tip for ya...Don't get zapped. Just saying. Lol.
We use and extendable Hotstick to reach the lines from the ground when knocking frost/ice/snow off the lines. I keep my distance I can tell you that. I admit, when I heard and saw the phase and neutral slap together and arc, I laughed a little bit. I am not gonna lie. Then I thought, crap I tripped this section of line out. Lol. It made it easier to clean the rest off. 😜😜. I am excited for spring to take family for a long drive up into the Blue Mountians. It ain’t the Rockies but it will do. Lol. Enjoy you trip out and away this weekend, it’s always nice to get out and away from the daily grind
I'm looking forward to saying good bye to the city for a bit, I can imagine that you would too once the snow leaves. It must be nice as life starts to come back to the mountains and wilderness areas. Make sure you stay alive to enjoy it...No grabbing power lines!
