NX4251 : Digging out the drive

taken 12 years ago, near to Braehead, Dumfries And Galloway, Scotland

Digging out the drive
Digging out the drive
One on my near neighbours hailed this tractor as it was passing (as you do in these parts when you know people) and the drive was cleared in two minutes. Day two without electricity although the nearby Bladnoch and Wigtown are live. The local roads are single track only and just about passable as the local farmers clear them with snow ploughs. No chance of getting anywhere on the minor roads still blocked with up to 10 feet of snow.
