Plowing snow [02] Item Info

Title:
Plowing snow [02]
Date Created (ISO Standard):
1943-01-27
Description:
The bulldozer operator has his problems too. If he does a good job of road plowing one day, he can come back the next day and do the job all over again because of a certainty it will have snowed two or three feet during the night. All too soon there is no place to push the snow... the snow banks on either side of the road become like rock and extend back into the trees. He guides his steel faced helpmate in a sort of all-out lunge at the accumulation of snow and holds it hard against the piles until it snorts down a chocking whisper, but somehow managers to keep the roads open.
