Road To Osier & Snow 05-05-12

Marvin and I can't remember a year with so little snow on the road to Osier this time of the year. The photos of the last cleared drift shows how high the plowed bank is and on a normal year it would be a minimum of 2 to 3 times higher. You also would see very little grass if there was any to see.

Roger, was the snow drift in your photos the only one on the way to Osier?

The photos are of 3 locations, the 3 locations that are the biggest problem every year. The last snowdrift photos are where we have the biggest drifts every year.

I can see why it would be the biggest considering there is snow there where everything else is bare. Who plowed the road?
