What part of Co is your home? Is it in snow country? Do you have a GOOD friend or neighbor who keeps an eye on the place while you are gone? Do you keep some heat (45-50 deg) in the house? If yes to these questions, I would do the following: Prep the tractor so it is ready to drive Have the friend/neighbor check on things 2 or 3 times a week Have him/her keep the driveway plowed. Having it look occupied helps deter vandalism, & cleaned driveway helps emergency access in case of fire or storm damage. I live on a lake (not on the lake, on the shore)in northern Mn, have several neighbors with summer cabins. Plow their driveways & check on the cabins frequently. They always offer money in the spring for this, but I decline. Just a good excuse to play in the snow with my tractor. I will accept a cool beverage from them in the summer. Willie
