Nasty weather here in eastern Ia & western Ill. Weather guessers calling for lots of snow and then the wind started about 10am. Wife and I both made it to work OK. She gets off at 2 and I get off at 2:30. She calls me at 2:30 and said she was just ready to turn off of the blacktop onto our gravel road, wasn't too bad. 2:35 she calls me, I'm stuck in a drift, I can see the house, should I try to walk home? I said stay in the car and keep warm till I see if I can get there. I came in the back way, blasted thru some good drifts with the 2wd pickup but made it home. Put on more clothes and got the 1850 and blade and chain and went to try to rescue her. She was about a short 1/8th mile from home. Had to back up to the car and pull snow away with the blade and cleaned a path out on the road. Shoveled snow away from the front of the car and finally found some metal to hook chain onto. I told her to put it in drive and if the car moved, give it a little gas to help me out. Pulled it right out, car was on top of the drift. I lead her home and put the tractor away. I don't think we will be going to work tomorrow till the snow plow goes by. Be Careful Out There!!! Chris
