    A lot of you haven't had snow yet and I finally got a picture of my plowing rig on my equipment page. We got our first plowable snow on the 17th of December.<p>----------<br>Eric@ELM<br>http://pages.prodigy.net/eric.erickson/index.html

    Yes I did, we got 2.5 inches where we live. Did you see the picture, there is snow in front of the blade. Didn't see that until the Jan. Blizzard last season.:)<p>----------<br>Eric@ELM<br>http://pages.prodigy.net/eric.erickson/index.html

    Red Neck, you pulled one up from one of the founders though. Eric's been gone for quite a few years now but his legacy still lives on.

    Eric had a big hand in getting these sites going. If it wasn't for his knowledge, my business wouldn't have flourished the way it has been. I miss him alot. This thread explains better. http://www.lawnsite.com/showthread.php?t=27241&highlight=eric+elm

    Wow! Talk about catching your breath.. When I saw the thread's author, I thought "What the heck??". That was a sad day when we heard Eric had passed. I haven't been to the site he started for a couple years; anyone know if it's still going? Eric was the original lawn "striper".
