Out Ioway

My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of Heaven and earth,
He will not let your foot slip-
He who watches over you will not slumber.
-Psalms 121:2,3

Tractor to the Rescue!

Ma was out busting her elbows for the second time this morning--not that I mind, since there are calories that need burning--when Dawson Ackerman drove up the road, on his way to clear out the church.

I heard the tractor slowing, slowing....and I thought--in between panting for breath--"Yep...if he asks whether I want a plow-out I am gonna say 'YES!'"

And so he got to work :-)


In no time at all he had just about blown through the "Tracy Cut" I'd been inching up towards....


Young lads o' the house were excited...aye !


Then he came up to the garage-front and significantly widened matters.


Ma watched from the stoop


Yessiree....looks like a clear path to die Straße!


The highest part of the drift comes up to Ma's shoulder...
...so ye olde elbowes are eternally grateful :-)

Thank you, Mr. Ackerman

We're so glad that you guys had someone come to your rescue! :D Those drifts look almost impossible to shovel out...in this case, who cares about the calories.
May the winds cease to blow for you all for a little while at least, so that all of Mr. Ackerman's beautiful work isn't undone. Take care!
