This is a picture of a snowplow outside of my house, not this winter, but, the winter of 1937.  (A few years before my time!)  My mother took it.  It was during an epic winter for our desert.  The worst in 60 years according to her.  Seeing the news reports today about another epic storm, the one hitting the north east as I'm typing this, I thought I'd put this in both my blog and my website.  What's interesting about this one, is that the snow plow was originally pulled by horses.  It's being hauled by a caterpillar tractor in this photo.  They understood about making do, back in the 1930s.
