Darn snow!

OK, I'm going to go out this morning and try to bring the Polaris back to the house. I went out yesterday with the new battery, and tried removing the old one from the machine. Nope. Mud, encrusted around the old one, prevents it from being removed from the machine. So, I will go out today before the "big snowstorm" comes, and makes the retrieval effort even harder.

On a side note; Arctic Cat is coming out with a diesel-powered machine. Hmmm..... I may have to go have a look at that, even though I have been happy with the Sportsman. I guess it depends how many trips I have to make out there to retrieve it. The Cat doesn't have much HP, but plenty of torque. I wonder why there is no turbo on it. They have been putting turbos on their sleds for the past couple of years, and they seem pretty reliable. I would love to take one for a ride, just to try it out.....

Woo-Hoo!

I got the machine out! It took me about an hour and a half, and had to winch it all the way, but it is finally home resting comfortably in the garage. Just in time for the snow to melt...
