We drove 1 hour 45 minutes to Duluth, Minnesota to lay in supplies that can't be found in our area. Going from store to store we passed a car dealership a couple of times. It had a huge dumpster in front of the showroom. Every time we went by...it had a different car sticking out of the dumpster! They had their own "cash for clunkers" deal going. It certainly caught our attention. However, I cannot tell you the type of dealership it was. So much for that advertising campaign.
As we were stopped at a red light, we saw a Duluth snow plow. Not like the ones in Illinois or even the ones in Hayward, WI. Instead of a single blade or a V-shaped blade, it had augers (a large screw on its side - turning) in the front like the snow blower in your garage. It was huge. This plow had THREE augers stacked on top of each other. Case and I saw it at the same time and laughed out loud. That's a snow plow!
After loading the back seat, trunk and around my feet, we headed home. It felt as though we were early pioneers who had brought our pelts to town to trade for dry goods at the general store.
