Hi Marie I've been snow clearing for 23 yrs and I still enjoy a nice big snow fake day I find there a sense of tranquility it's like your in a snow-globe
It's always nice to get a warm spell to catch up and re set from the snow. You are keeping up very well with it! I really like the board and batten style of your house, rustic but neat. That fish recipe is an easy pleaser for sure. I based it on a recipe from the TV show Michigan Outdoors on PBS where they included a recipe on every show. For years I have had friends from WV come up for several days salmon fishing in the fall and I am the fish cook. One year I forgot to bring my deep fryer and was given a hard time about it. My one buddy scolded me and said he don't care if I ever bring a fishing rod again just remember the dang deep fryer😅 Have a great week, thanks for sharing!
That deep fryer story is hilarious but I understand, plus I feel like food tastes way better when its been caught fresh and cooked outside! salmon fishing sounds fun!! the fish recipe is so good, someone else commented that they were going to make fish tacos too because the recipe you shared sounded good to them too! the warm spell was so nice!
I lived in Wakefield Michigan in the Western end of UP near Lake Superior, we would get 300 inches of snow and shovel snow it seemed every day! You would shovel your roof off for two days and not need a latter to get off the roof, the temperature would be below zero for the entire month! What a place to live!
Du hast sehr gut geteilt.🌱🌱 Die Art und Weise, wie du alles machst, ist so besonders.🌺☘🌺🌺 Dein Video ist so eingängig, ich werde dich immer unterstützen
Hi Marie! I like your two cats. I have one here with me too. He always has to be with me and wonders where I'm at. He does the same thing when doing the bedding. My last cat did the same. I sure miss her. Been gone 6 years now. I have always had cats since being in my teens. A long time ago. You are doing a nice job removing the snow around there. Be easier on you when you get the roof work done. Don't have much snow on the ground here at the moment in northern delta. Only in the teens for a temperature though. Looks like more heading your way. Have you ever been to presque isle in marquette. That's a real nice place. Happy New Year!
hi, aren't cats awesome! I love animals in general but cats are pretty amazing! how cool that your cats current and past all like to hide under the bedding too. thank you for saying im doing a good job removing the snow, it sure is a great workout! presque isle is so beautiful! happy new year to you as well!
@@marieintheUP Keep wanting to ask how do you like that e go blower? That electric snow shovel helps a lot too. Just ordered a sno joe electric shovel for here. Already have a toro electric shovel. I do the driveway with an 18 HP Yardman garden tractor with a 45" blower on the front. Always works real good for years. I imagine you will get a rider eventually. Make it easier on you also.
@ I like the ego, I find I use my electric shovel more because it’s more portable and I can take it all over the yard easily but I like the ego. It works well. I have a neighbor who will snow plow for me but we are waiting until the ground freezes because we tore up the yard in November with the snow plow. I may get something bigger but I’m not sure. I want to see how things go this winter before I make a decision It sounds like you have a great snow clearing setup at your place!!
I didn't read through any of the comments to see if anyone else mentioned it, but it may be wise to ask your neighbor with the tractor mounted snowblower to come in & blow away the snow that has come off your roofs. As much snow potential as you have it would be nice to stay ahead it to make room for more... Stay blessed!
im so happy to hear your brisket turned out amazing, I thought it would! that is a big bummer on the snow all being blown away, hope you get some snow soon!
One of my families comfort food recipes from our grandmother was and is very simple to make. Homemade fried rice 1 cup of white rice 2 cans of chicken and rice soup 1 small can of diced carrots. 3/4 stick butter You will need a covered casserole dish for the oven. Pan brown your rice in 3/4 stick of butter.(do not boil it) Stir the rice constantly until browned. In the casserole dish add the 2 cans of soup.( do not add water ) Add your browned rice and melted butter to the casserole and then add the drained can of carrots. Cover and bake at,350° oven for 1 hour stir it half way thru. Scrape the edges of the casserole dish to loosen the rice that sticks to the edges. No need to season with anything cause the soup has plenty of seasoning. We all make it still today. Good update thanks for posting👋❄
I love fried rice, this recipe looks amazing, thank you for sharing your grandmothers Homemade fried rice recipe!! adding this to my recipe book, thank you so much!
Getting outside and enjoying the fresh air is so good for you. The bonus with shoveling is your getting a great workout. So funny that scruffy does that under your sheets. Have a great day !
hi John, I agree with you, my fitness level has increased already this winter! I think its going to be a very healthy winter for me! isn't he so funny! thank you for watching, hope you have a great day too
@@johnteachout610 ohhh the snow has arrived!! I hope you get to get out there and enjoy it! it has been snowing here all night and its been windy so I have my first snow drifts, now I get to learn how to deal with those lol!
The snow is beautiful but I know it’s a lot of work. Your cats are great! You seem very ambitious and sometimes i get tired seeing you work like you do. You live in a very nice setting and are obviously busy keeping up with everything. Have a great 2025!
I agree with you on the cats, are they fun! they provide a lot of entertainment lol. I make myself tired with all this snow shoveling hehe, thank you for watching and for your awesome comment, cheers to 2025!!
Used to camp and hunt up by Houghton and met some really nice yoopers up there so hoping you are meeting some to as good neighbors in the north are invaluable! If you havnt spent a mosquito season there yet that will be another hurdle for ya but i feel def worth it. Not much snow here in northern wi, really feel the pain for local business!
That is beautiful country! I wish I had flat land like that! I'm jealous. All I have here in PA is hills around my house. Live on a steep hill with a very steep driveway. Makes clearing the snow a fun game, kinda like what bone am I going to break this time clearing to driveway. Lol
I would struggle so much with a hilly driveway or yard, I made sure to get flat land, it was part of my requirements, I can imagine you have a time with that, be safe!
Thanks! It definitely has, the windchill is -1 today, I need to get out there and shovel but I'm waiting a bit hehe. hope you have a great weekend too!
Great work.. For a suggestion I recommend to do a sight turn going straight forward with your shovel on light snow days. Usually helps from redoing your lines again.
Thanks for the great work on these videos! We have family in Marquette and Escanaba but have been to the Eastern UP and into Ontario many times. Beautiful area and welcome to an area to live that is so dear to our hearts. We have no snow in southern Wisconsin along Lake Michigan where we live, just cold and even rained over Christmas. Enjoy your new year and subscribed :)
how awesome that you have had so many great experiences in the UP too and that you have family here! WI is beautiful, I like the dells and it is really nice along Lake Michigan. hope you get some snow too, there is a crazy storm hitting lower this weekend, maybe some snow will show up, thank you for subscribing!
Thanks for the new video :) When you were shopping, its nice to have the whole store for your self :) i usually do my shopping late at night when its less people. I got hungary when i saw you eating... :)
its so much easier to shop when there are less people, I need to start changing the time I go because it was so nice to have the store to myself! all that snow blowing in Sweden is making you hungry, thank you for watching!
When you want to move a big pile of snow, try "side cutting" with your blower, approach the pile parallel and use the metal housing of the blower to "cut" some of the snow away from the pile and into the auger. Stay safe and warm!
11:01 there you go! Use the pile and pay attention this year to the sun patterns and push snow into those areas. Love your fearlessness in sharing your stories.
I eat a lot of quesadillas. Likely too much. A dip recipe for them I found is so good if you like cilantro. 1/2 c sour cream 1/4 c mayo 1/2 c chopped cilantro(I use half of a typical store bought bunch) 1 tbsp lime juice Couple pinches of salt to taste
The original recipe was from "gimme delicious". Just search "southwest veggie quesadillas". I've been on a low carb diet for 4 years so don't make it often with corn and black beans, but I love the dip.
Great video. Happy New Year and may 2025 be what exactly what you need...can't wait to see your oasis in your summer videos..will be magical. Have a great week-end. Just about to go out and snowblow what we got on the last 2 days...
Cheers to the new year~ its crazy how different it is in the summer here, the fall is really nice to! I hope your weekend is great too, take care and I hope you didn't get too much snow!
I'm so enjoying your vlogs. You are very personable, possess a pleasant demeaner and a warm, gentle spirit. It's no wonder you sought ought the beauty and the solitude of the U.P. and the Yoopers! I picked Delta County as my next home as it receives the least amount of snowfall (avg. 52 in annually) and has the longest growing season. I'm glad you mentioned fish tacos, that's what I will have for dinner. Thank your for your time and effort in sharing your adventures with us. As always, please take the very best of care. Bye😊🌨Stay warm. One more thing, one of my biggest concerns is the price of propane. So expensive $$$!!!
hi, I so enjoy talking to you! thank you for continuing to watch my vlogs and for your comments. I think you are going to love living in Delta County, you will be so close to so many things in the UP and it is beautiful on Lake Michigan, the shoreline there is breathtaking! and having less snow to deal with is a win win! propane is expensive, I have found ways to use less but each time I have to have the 500 gallon tank filled, its a little painful to pay that bill. I did get a heat pump this year and it has really cut back on my propane use. enjoy your fish tacos! I hope you keep watching my adventures and keep me updated on yours!
@@marieintheUP Hi Marie! Another reason I picked Delta county/Escanaba is that it is fairy equidistant between Western/Eastern U.P. Plus, the shopping is good in Esky and it has an Aldi's! Also St. Francis Hosp. I wish to explore ALL of the U.P. I will have propane, but just for cooking. For heating the house, I'm going to use an indoor wood boiler (radiant floor heat and hot water). Also, entertaining the idea of solar/wind w/battery bank. In case of outages, or no sun or wind, I already have a portable whole house generator rated at 17,500 watts continuous. Glad to hear the heat pump is helping you conserve some propane. Bye! As always, please take the very best of care.
@@Michigan...Possible ratiant floor heat is amazing! I would love to have a wood stove, most of my neighbors have them. it sounds like you have it all planned, that is awesome! the shopping in that area is fantastic! you picked a good spot
@@marieintheUP There is something special about the properties of the heat given off by a wood stove. I too would love to have a wood stove in case there is a boiler issue. I like soapstone stoves and how the store and slowly radiate the heat. They are the most expensive though. I will probably end up with a cast iron stove backup. Do you have enough timber on your property to harvest your own wood? Or would that be pushing as it is a lot of work and time and you still have Mom and Dad to take care of which also takes a lot of work and time? It is quite the balancing act. I admire your for it and your work ethic!
@@Michigan...Possible i do harvest my own wood, I have a wood shed and everything, I show that in my bonfire video if you want to see it! but i don't want to rely on wood for heat, lots of my neighbors do though and they love it! I have electric and propane heat and will have a little wood stove in the log cabin or garage one day i think depending on things. good questions and good ideas! soapstone stoves are really nice!
hi! how are you doing today? thank you for saying that, it is alot of work but it is so much easier if I take care of it right away and don't wait for a few days, you all have given me such great advice!
@@marieintheUP You already look like a pro. When you mentioned the fire pit creating some of your ice problems I thought about your first comment that you thought it would just be sitting around a fire drinking tea watching the snow fall. You have come a long way. You are doing great.
@@chipsdad5861 I was so wrong about how I thought I would be spending the winter haha thank you for the encouragement, I am learning so much about the snow here
you own a beautiful home and property Marie, congratulations. You mentioned Maine, probably a better decision of the 'UP" verses Maine relating to snowfall, they really get "hammered" !!!!. Being a "gal" from Arizona you have grit!, be safe tackling all that snow, it can be overwhelming. Happy New Year!, music in the background has traits of Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin...
good ear, I like the song and thought it sounded somewhat familiar, now I know why! thank you for the compliment on my property, I sure do love it! I think you are right about the UP/Maine, I would have also been on the ocean and it would have been really rough and even more remote. I am glad Im in the UP! happy new year to you too!
Don't tear down that nice log house. You can make nice Sauna with quest room from it! And through wall wood sauna stove with glass door you get nice fireplace to quest room side and wood stove for Sauna with one unit. Greetings from Finland land of Saunas! ☺️
hi in Finland!! I will try to save the cabin, it is beautiful, I would love to have a sauna, its on my list of plans this summer. thank you for watching and for your comment!
CATS are so cute. They all have there own personalities. One of our cats is having a love affair with the new lab retriever that we adopted. They are very cute. Our cats love to be brushed and they shed alot so brushing helps keep the hair under control.
awe they sound so cute, the lab and your cat are best friends!! I wish my cats liked being brushed, i have tried (started when they were kittens) brushing them and they don't let me, they run away lol but I still keep trying, maybe one day they will let me
You have a cozy and beautiful place in the woods. Removing the snow is a big job for sure. Keeping up with it like you are doing is the easiest way to go. It’s blowing and snowing today. Cold as well. Hoping we get a good snowstorm soon. ❄️💙
I hope you get a great snowstorm, im still waiting on the temps to cool down so I can have squeaky snow :) its so much work dealing with the snow, its a good workout for sure. I do love this little slice of woods that is all mine!
It really cooled down here today. Definitely squeaky snow weather but the colder the squeakier. When it dips below 14 degrees F then it’s squeaky snow time. Today it was 13F feeling like -8 with the wind chill. ❄️💙🥶🙌🏻
@@BBQNerd they are annoying for sure, but I wear this little gadget from amazon and it work, it keeps them away! its a fake dragonfly thing that you wear and it works, looks silly but it works
@@marklambert4793 than you for subscribing! I will have to show it in a video when it warms up and the bugs come out, everyone will get a good laugh because it looks so silly, but it works! I have a new gizmo for the mosquitoes, will post that info too!
Metal roofs are great. I have 30 year old metal roof and love it. Had same problem with snow sliding. I installed just one row of snow brakes at the bottom of the roof. In my opinion if you install snow brakes you wouldn't need a tractor with a bucket for your property. ATV with a plow would be enough and you could use ATV in off season to ride trails and make great vlogs. CFMoto 600 2up highly recommend. It would be small enough to fit inside the garage between your cars and the garage door, backed in ready to go.
I will have to look into snow brakes, thanks for the advice. I really would like a ATV with a plow, that would be fun like you said!! im googling cf moto 600 2up right now!
@@marieintheUP comparing to others this one is priced way below competition and quality is way above the competition. I got plow on ebay shipped to Alaska from Ontario for a total 350. I have 2021 blue one, going plowing in 30 min
With all the snow piling up, you almost have to have some sort of tractor like a Bobcat (or know somebody with one) to move the big piles of snow that accumulate next to the house from your roof. If I move to the U.P. or some other heavy snowbelt area, I'm considering a Bobcat loader. They really move snow! Along with the 10 hp Toro snowblower I have now, I should be good.
you are right, I already had to have a tractor come and deal with my snow piles two weeks ago, luckily I have fantastic neighbors, I have been eying a tractor but im not making any decisions until I get through this winter, I am looking at atv's to add a plow and then have fun on atv in summer
Hello marie. Those quiasadias look good. You make me hungry everytime you have lunch. Walmart at 6 in the morning is the best time to shop, no crowds. In and out. I am glad to see you using that snow rake for the roof. Safety first. I work a dangerous job and they preach to us safety, safety, and more safety, which is a good thing so you you work in one piece. My dog rocky has his own bedroom with a bed. I tuck him in with a angry birds blanket and he loves it. Do you like any kind of pizza? Sunday is always a pizza day. I bet there some good mom and pop shops out your way. Well take care and happy new year!!!!!!!
hi! that makes me happy to hear, I do like sharing the food I make for lunch with you all! you are right about the early am time being the best time to shop at Walmart, i am going to have to get out early from now it, it is nice! safety first is so important, I am glad you are making sure to follow safety protocols at your job! awe it sounds like Rocky is living his best life with his own room and special angry birds blanket. there are some amazing mom and pop shops out here you are right! I love pizza, Friday's are my pizza day, I will have to make pizza for sure in a video, I like mine with chicken, onions and mushrooms, how do you like your pizza? happy new year to you too!
Hello marie, I love pizza with pepperoni. Pretty simple and as an appetizer I order a large cheesey bread with a dipping sauce. It's good stuff. Love it. Talk to you soon. Great videos
@@Joe-y4x simple but classic for a reason, you can't go wrong with a pepperoni pizza! and with cheesy bread and a dipping sauce, now that's living the good life!
Thanks for putting out a snow video. Yes, my cat loves warm laundry especially towels and bedding. I'm sitting here sick, 😢 trying to nurse myself back to health. Have you heard about the mega snowstorm of December 1995??
I have heard that something is going around right now, lots of people are getting sick. i hope you recover quickly, that is never fun to be sick. hopefully your cat is giving you lots of cuddles to help you! I had to look up the snowstorm of Dec 1995 and holy wow, 57 inches in 4 days, no thank you! that is intense, my arms can't lol!
After living in Rapid City SD for the last 45 years, where we don’t get anywhere near as much snow as you do. The Roof Razor, Roof Rake, Snowblower, and finally your manual (ergonomically correct 👍🏻) snow shovel are your tickets to a gym free life, while maintaining a rock hard body with an almost negative BMI. There are no short cuts or gimmicks, just plain old hard physical work. Had to laugh at Scruffy giving you, the what you doing in my hidey hole look 👀. Another entertaining video, 2025 is going to be a good year for an up and coming Yooper.
how are you doing Brad! you are so right, I have this amazing outdoor gym and all the snow tools I bought this winter are my outdoor nature gym, I am in the best shape and I had have to increase my food calories to stop from losing too much weight, the crisp clear air, its amazing. Im glad you caught his look, he was like get out of my spot lol
I spend alot of time collecting scrub wood and moving it up to the house to be cut up for supplemental firewood. We have alot of scrub cherry trees that were pushed over by snow 2 years ago. Keep the property cleaned up and gives me plenty of supplemental heating wood in addition to the wood we split and pay for.
Your meal looked much better than mine. I just finished my lazy lunch, a tuna fish sandwich and a cup of tomato soup. Seeing your little shed, it looks like it would make a cozy reading room. It would have to be insulated better. Then add a pot bell stove, a rug, and a rocking chair. You sure don't need to join planet fitness, the snow removal will keep you in shape. Take care, John
tuna and tomato soup, that sounds good to me! the shed would make a cozy reading room, that is a great idea, and a stove, rug, insulation, rocking chair, yes I like the way you think! and you are right about the gym. the snow is keeping me in shape!
Haha hope you like SNOW being in the UP snow is your life now 😁 get a snowmobile an enjoy .. I shovel and blow both. Got a toro 824xl eats any storm with ease. Wished i was closer as work here is so slow i love to play in the snow i would come help for free but i am a bit far from you lol.
I am quickly realizing I need to really really love the snow haha because it has taken over my life :) I so want a snowmobile, its on my list! I have heard great things about Toro's, Im finding that just like you said, I use the shovel, blower, rake, all do so much! where do you live?
Just noticed you have skylights on a shallow pitched roof that definitely isn’t helping with heat loss and leaks. When/if you put on new roof my suggestion is to get rid of those sky lights..put them in tea room porch that’s un heated
I wonder if that is why the entire roof section where the sky lights are had ice...I didn't put those in, I like them but I have wondered if they would cause problems. no leaks yet but could be causing heat loss, thanks for the idea, will see how things go this winter
2 of our cats do the same thing with the sheets/blankets! When we make the bed, the 2 girls ALWAYS like to get under the covers when we toss the sheets and/or blankets to spread them onto the bed. This even happens if we place a blanket on the couch to use. Great video and good luck with the snow clearing! Not much snow has fallen in Maine.
i am so happy to read your comment, I love that you have cats that do this same thing. its so cute and it must be comforting or something to the cats to be under the sheets/blankets, that is so cute that your cats even do that when you put a blanket on the couch, thank you for watching, Maine is such a beautiful place, maybe snow is one the way with this weekend cool down storm?
When you walked to the back of the house and the Air Conditioner kicked on........is it an A/C unit or a heat pump? Looks like when that kicked on it dimmed your house lights. Hopefully it's NOT a heat pump. In the upper Midwest heat pumps in the winter just suck a lot of energy with no results. Cheers from Minnesota! Temp today is -1.
hi! it is a heat pump, it is new and its amazing, also this heat pumps is an ac, it sucks the hot air out of the house in the summer and pulls the hot air in, in the winter, I also have a propane furnace, because a heat pump can't work on it own once the temp drops to 40 degrees or lower. Both my propane bill and my electric bill have seen great results from having the heat pump and I am so happy I have one! have you had issues with a heat pump before? its. -1 here too! cheers in MN!
hi Steve, great to hear from you! so far it seems like we have a foot of snow, and its still going strong, how are you doing? the cats are great, they are all cuddled up taking cat naps
@@marieintheUP Not much happening here. Just some flurries. My cat is eating again and then sleeping or looking out the window. Have had five deer coming here for quite a while. I put corn out there every morning and here they all come. Watching from somewhere. A lot of birds too.
hi Jim, I was drinking a lemon electrolyte drink, you are right it does look like Mountain Dew which would have tasted better than my drink lol, thanks for watching!
@@JSBowling2011 that is so nice to hear, i will keep making them, my next video im going to talk about my experience so far on youtube, the good and the bad :) I hope you will find it to be interesting!
as of yesterday only about 8 inches, but its been snowing all night and its supposed to keep going today and tomorrow so I think there will be a lot more. it is super windy so there are snow drifts in my yard and I haven't dealt what that before so something new to learn :)
UPM : At this hour it looks like all the viewers used the comments up. 😪 Soooooo your view count should be at 250,000 by the first week in March. Know what that means? All your viewers get a commemorative bag of mixed nuts. Seriously maybe a live blog would be something to consider. Anyway I got the Brownsville Food Pantry site on now and those deer are in a feeding frenzy. Snowed here today and am buried in possibly a trace of it on the grass. Adios M ⛄ 🦌
hi, a live blog is something I can do, if you all are interested in it, it sounds like a fun view to watch the deer eat. it sounds like you got a nice snow dusting! until next time!
You are a resilient woman. And that's amazing. But it is only a matter of time before you buy a side-by-side with a plow. This is just a michigander speaking
Marie is your location top secret, or have you said if your east or west in the UP. I'm gonna try to find some snowmobile club info for your area, but completely understand if your not wanting that public. Happy Friday
hi! I am in the eastern UP, if you find any I am okay with you sharing any names of snowmobile clubs, I keep my town top secret but I have no doubt any club will be in a city so I am okay with that, happy friday to you too!
I swear, I'm going buy you a scoop! 😂 I have 2. A big authentic "Yooper Scoop" made in Ironwood. It's heavy, but holds high capacity. I also have a lite duty plastic scoop I got at Menards. Light weight. Less capacity, but easier to push. It would be perfect for you. I loved your dancing moves, or perhaps ninja skills. Hard to know in fast motion. Lol. 🥷
I really do need a scoop and that lite duty plastic scoop sounds perfect! im going to see if I can order it online from Menards because there isn't one close to me. the shovel I use doesn't get enough of the snow each go. they are dancing moves, I need to show some of that in my videos, Im out here everyday dancing in the yard lol also, thoughts on a atv? I know you have a nice one. im looking at this cfmoto cforce 600- its nice, a bit pricey, thoughts on what kind of atv would be good for me?
@marieintheUP ok dancing. The way you were twirling that shovel, it thought maybe you were fighting. Yes, more dancing to the snow gods! The scoop from Menards is black, with a metal edge, if that helps. I have a CFMoto Overland 1000. It's BIG. But I wanted enough power to push snow. Looking back, I would have gone with the 800. You can get a smaller plow for a 600. It will handle up to 4 or 5 inches. CFMoto typically comes standard with a winch for lifting/lowering plow. Other ATV manufacturers charge extra to install a winch. There are lots of TH-cams on the topic.
I couldn't find my scoop on Menards site. 22 inch "Suncast" on Walmart site would be good. Also, don't ever buy a "wheeled" shovel. Those only work on real smooth surfaces such as concrete sidewalks/driveways.
@@Yooperglide lol my dancing can most def look like ninja fighting too! I wasn't able to find that scooper so I started looking at ace, I can check out walmart, that would be easier than ace- I was wondering about those wheeled shovels, good to know. thank you!
Hi Marie I've been snow clearing for 23 yrs and I still enjoy a nice big snow fake day I find there a sense of tranquility it's like your in a snow-globe
that is the perfect way to describe it here, it is like a snow globe, its very peaceful!
It's always nice to get a warm spell to catch up and re set from the snow. You are keeping up very well with it! I really like the board and batten style of your house, rustic but neat. That fish recipe is an easy pleaser for sure. I based it on a recipe from the TV show Michigan Outdoors on PBS where they included a recipe on every show. For years I have had friends from WV come up for several days salmon fishing in the fall and I am the fish cook. One year I forgot to bring my deep fryer and was given a hard time about it. My one buddy scolded me and said he don't care if I ever bring a fishing rod again just remember the dang deep fryer😅 Have a great week, thanks for sharing!
That deep fryer story is hilarious but I understand, plus I feel like food tastes way better when its been caught fresh and cooked outside! salmon fishing sounds fun!! the fish recipe is so good, someone else commented that they were going to make fish tacos too because the recipe you shared sounded good to them too! the warm spell was so nice!
I lived in Wakefield Michigan in the Western end of UP near Lake Superior, we would get 300 inches of snow and shovel snow it seemed every day! You would shovel your roof off for two days and not need a latter to get off the roof, the temperature would be below zero for the entire month! What a place to live!
I remember the Ironwood pizza hut having to tunnel an entrance from the roof high snow
woah~ that is so much snow! very cool you had those experiences in the UP
We have a house near Calumet, a few year back we spent part of the winter there. We had around 4 or 5 feet over a couple of weeks. WOW
That’s a lot of snow! It sounds like you have some great winter memories from the U.P.
Living near the great lakes has its pros and cons! No bugs or snakes in the winter time😀
you are right about that, it is very nice to not have any bugs or snakes right now!!

Hi Marie! I like your two cats. I have one here with me too. He always has to be with me and wonders where I'm at. He does the same thing when doing the bedding. My last cat did the same. I sure miss her. Been gone 6 years now. I have always had cats since being in my teens. A long time ago. You are doing a nice job removing the snow around there. Be easier on you when you get the roof work done. Don't have much snow on the ground here at the moment in northern delta. Only in the teens for a temperature though. Looks like more heading your way. Have you ever been to presque isle in marquette. That's a real nice place. Happy New Year!
hi, aren't cats awesome! I love animals in general but cats are pretty amazing! how cool that your cats current and past all like to hide under the bedding too. thank you for saying im doing a good job removing the snow, it sure is a great workout! presque isle is so beautiful! happy new year to you as well!
@@marieintheUP Keep wanting to ask how do you like that e go blower? That electric snow shovel helps a lot too. Just ordered a sno joe electric shovel for here. Already have a toro electric shovel. I do the driveway with an 18 HP Yardman garden tractor with a 45" blower on the front. Always works real good for years. I imagine you will get a rider eventually. Make it easier on you also.
@ I like the ego, I find I use my electric shovel more because it’s more portable and I can take it all over the yard easily but I like the ego. It works well. I have a neighbor who will snow plow for me but we are waiting until the ground freezes because we tore up the yard in November with the snow plow. I may get something bigger but I’m not sure. I want to see how things go this winter before I make a decision
It sounds like you have a great snow clearing setup at your place!!
I didn't read through any of the comments to see if anyone else mentioned it, but it may be wise to ask your neighbor with the tractor mounted snowblower to come in & blow away the snow that has come off your roofs. As much snow potential as you have it would be nice to stay ahead it to make room for more... Stay blessed!
So pretty this time of year with the snow hanging on the trees. Good video!
I agree, the snow makes everything look so peaceful, thank you
Excellent efforts clearing the snow off your roofs. Good work!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
As of now we have zero snow in Iron Mountain, snowed one night and the wind just blew it away. But an update, you were right, my brisket was amazing!
I miss Iron Mountain big time.
im so happy to hear your brisket turned out amazing, I thought it would! that is a big bummer on the snow all being blown away, hope you get some snow soon!
One of my families comfort food recipes from our grandmother was and is very simple to make.
Homemade fried rice
1 cup of white rice
2 cans of chicken and rice soup
1 small can of diced carrots.
3/4 stick butter
You will need a covered casserole dish for the oven.
Pan brown your rice in 3/4 stick of butter.(do not boil it)
Stir the rice constantly until browned.
In the casserole dish add the 2 cans of soup.( do not add water )
Add your browned rice and melted butter to the casserole and then add the drained can of carrots.
Cover and bake at,350° oven for 1 hour stir it half way thru. Scrape the edges of the casserole dish to loosen the rice that sticks to the edges.
No need to season with anything cause the soup has plenty of seasoning. We all make it still today.
Good update thanks for posting👋❄
I love fried rice, this recipe looks amazing, thank you for sharing your grandmothers Homemade fried rice recipe!! adding this to my recipe book, thank you so much!
Getting outside and enjoying the fresh air is so good for you. The bonus with shoveling is your getting a great workout. So funny that scruffy does that under your sheets. Have a great day !
hi John, I agree with you, my fitness level has increased already this winter! I think its going to be a very healthy winter for me! isn't he so funny! thank you for watching, hope you have a great day too
@@marieintheUP Thank You, woke up to about 6 inches lake effect , from Lake Ontario
@@johnteachout610 ohhh the snow has arrived!! I hope you get to get out there and enjoy it! it has been snowing here all night and its been windy so I have my first snow drifts, now I get to learn how to deal with those lol!
The snow is beautiful but I know it’s a lot of work. Your cats are great! You seem very ambitious and sometimes i get tired seeing you work like you do. You live in a very nice setting and are obviously busy keeping up with everything. Have a great 2025!
I agree with you on the cats, are they fun! they provide a lot of entertainment lol. I make myself tired with all this snow shoveling hehe, thank you for watching and for your awesome comment, cheers to 2025!!
Rhett
Used to camp and hunt up by Houghton and met some really nice yoopers up there so hoping you are meeting some to as good neighbors in the north are invaluable! If you havnt spent a mosquito season there yet that will be another hurdle for ya but i feel def worth it. Not much snow here in northern wi, really feel the pain for local business!
Just love the music, very majestic
great to hear, I was tying to find something that would fit the snow shoveling well!
LOVE ❤️ your videos!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! THANK YOU for sharing!
awe thank you so much, i enjoy making these videos, happy new year!! thank you for watching
That is beautiful country! I wish I had flat land like that! I'm jealous. All I have here in PA is hills around my house. Live on a steep hill with a very steep driveway. Makes clearing the snow a fun game, kinda like what bone am I going to break this time clearing to driveway. Lol
I would struggle so much with a hilly driveway or yard, I made sure to get flat land, it was part of my requirements, I can imagine you have a time with that, be safe!
@marieintheUP the struggle is real. Lol
Its gotten COOOOOOOLLLLDER!! stay bundled up dear..😎😎 Have a funtastic weekend!
Thanks! It definitely has, the windchill is -1 today, I need to get out there and shovel but I'm waiting a bit hehe. hope you have a great weekend too!
Great work.. For a suggestion I recommend to do a sight turn going straight forward with your shovel on light snow days. Usually helps from redoing your lines again.
That is a great tip, I will give it a try and see how it goes, I was annoyed by those lines
Thanks for the great work on these videos! We have family in Marquette and Escanaba but have been to the Eastern UP and into Ontario many times. Beautiful area and welcome to an area to live that is so dear to our hearts. We have no snow in southern Wisconsin along Lake Michigan where we live, just cold and even rained over Christmas. Enjoy your new year and subscribed :)
how awesome that you have had so many great experiences in the UP too and that you have family here! WI is beautiful, I like the dells and it is really nice along Lake Michigan. hope you get some snow too, there is a crazy storm hitting lower this weekend, maybe some snow will show up, thank you for subscribing!
Thanks for the new video :)
When you were shopping, its nice to have the whole store for your self :) i usually do my shopping late at night when its less people.
I got hungary when i saw you eating... :)
its so much easier to shop when there are less people, I need to start changing the time I go because it was so nice to have the store to myself! all that snow blowing in Sweden is making you hungry, thank you for watching!
Happy New Year! Thank you, and keep working.
Thank you so much, Happy New Year!
When you want to move a big pile of snow, try "side cutting" with your blower, approach the pile parallel and use the metal housing of the blower to "cut" some of the snow away from the pile and into the auger. Stay safe and warm!
hi, great tip because i haven't been successful with the big snow piles, I will try that!
11:01 there you go! Use the pile and pay attention this year to the sun patterns and push snow into those areas. Love your fearlessness in sharing your stories.
awe, thank you! I agree, im trying to figure out how to use the limited sun to my advantage this winter with the snow
Haha... That's what I do as well. Push the snow into areas that don't create other problems in the spring as it melts.
@@Dale-s1u its a good plan! effective for sure
I eat a lot of quesadillas. Likely too much. A dip recipe for them I found is so good if you like cilantro.
1/2 c sour cream
1/4 c mayo
1/2 c chopped cilantro(I use half of a typical store bought bunch)
1 tbsp lime juice
Couple pinches of salt to taste
The original recipe was from "gimme delicious". Just search "southwest veggie quesadillas". I've been on a low carb diet for 4 years so don't make it often with corn and black beans, but I love the dip.
sweet! I love recipe recommendations, I like cilantro so I would like this dip, im taking note and going to try it, thank you for sharing it
Great video. Happy New Year and may 2025 be what exactly what you need...can't wait to see your oasis in your summer videos..will be magical. Have a great week-end. Just about to go out and snowblow what we got on the last 2 days...
Cheers to the new year~ its crazy how different it is in the summer here, the fall is really nice to! I hope your weekend is great too, take care and I hope you didn't get too much snow!
Wow very nice my dear friend 💚💜💙🤍🙋🏻♀️
thank you for the kind comment, your camping adventures are so amazing, love your videos!
I'm so enjoying your vlogs. You are very personable, possess a pleasant demeaner and a warm, gentle spirit. It's no wonder you sought ought the beauty and the solitude of the U.P. and the Yoopers! I picked Delta County as my next home as it receives the least amount of snowfall (avg. 52 in annually) and has the longest growing season. I'm glad you mentioned fish tacos, that's what I will have for dinner. Thank your for your time and effort in sharing your adventures with us. As always, please take the very best of care. Bye😊🌨Stay warm. One more thing, one of my biggest concerns is the price of propane. So expensive $$$!!!
hi, I so enjoy talking to you! thank you for continuing to watch my vlogs and for your comments. I think you are going to love living in Delta County, you will be so close to so many things in the UP and it is beautiful on Lake Michigan, the shoreline there is breathtaking! and having less snow to deal with is a win win! propane is expensive, I have found ways to use less but each time I have to have the 500 gallon tank filled, its a little painful to pay that bill. I did get a heat pump this year and it has really cut back on my propane use. enjoy your fish tacos! I hope you keep watching my adventures and keep me updated on yours!
@@marieintheUP Hi Marie! Another reason I picked Delta county/Escanaba is that it is fairy equidistant between Western/Eastern U.P. Plus, the shopping is good in Esky and it has an Aldi's! Also St. Francis Hosp. I wish to explore ALL of the U.P. I will have propane, but just for cooking. For heating the house, I'm going to use an indoor wood boiler (radiant floor heat and hot water). Also, entertaining the idea of solar/wind w/battery bank. In case of outages, or no sun or wind, I already have a portable whole house generator rated at 17,500 watts continuous. Glad to hear the heat pump is helping you conserve some propane. Bye! As always, please take the very best of care.
@@Michigan...Possible ratiant floor heat is amazing! I would love to have a wood stove, most of my neighbors have them. it sounds like you have it all planned, that is awesome! the shopping in that area is fantastic! you picked a good spot
@@marieintheUP There is something special about the properties of the heat given off by a wood stove. I too would love to have a wood stove in case there is a boiler issue. I like soapstone stoves and how the store and slowly radiate the heat. They are the most expensive though. I will probably end up with a cast iron stove backup. Do you have enough timber on your property to harvest your own wood? Or would that be pushing as it is a lot of work and time and you still have Mom and Dad to take care of which also takes a lot of work and time? It is quite the balancing act. I admire your for it and your work ethic!
@@Michigan...Possible i do harvest my own wood, I have a wood shed and everything, I show that in my bonfire video if you want to see it! but i don't want to rely on wood for heat, lots of my neighbors do though and they love it! I have electric and propane heat and will have a little wood stove in the log cabin or garage one day i think depending on things. good questions and good ideas! soapstone stoves are really nice!
You are doing a great job with the snow and I love the roof rake idea for reducing the ice dam concern. It should really help with the ice.
hi! how are you doing today? thank you for saying that, it is alot of work but it is so much easier if I take care of it right away and don't wait for a few days, you all have given me such great advice!
@@marieintheUP You already look like a pro. When you mentioned the fire pit creating some of your ice problems I thought about your first comment that you thought it would just be sitting around a fire drinking tea watching the snow fall. You have come a long way. You are doing great.
@@chipsdad5861 I was so wrong about how I thought I would be spending the winter haha thank you for the encouragement, I am learning so much about the snow here
you own a beautiful home and property Marie, congratulations. You mentioned Maine, probably a better decision of the 'UP" verses Maine relating to snowfall, they really get "hammered" !!!!. Being a "gal" from Arizona you have grit!, be safe tackling all that snow, it can be overwhelming. Happy New Year!, music in the background has traits of Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin...
good ear, I like the song and thought it sounded somewhat familiar, now I know why! thank you for the compliment on my property, I sure do love it! I think you are right about the UP/Maine, I would have also been on the ocean and it would have been really rough and even more remote. I am glad Im in the UP! happy new year to you too!
nice property!
thank you, I like having so many pine trees
Time to make a snowman,,,perfect snow !
it is the perfect time, thank you for the reminder!!
Don't tear down that nice log house. You can make nice Sauna with quest room from it! And through wall wood sauna stove with glass door you get nice fireplace to quest room side and wood stove for Sauna with one unit. Greetings from Finland land of Saunas! ☺️
hi in Finland!! I will try to save the cabin, it is beautiful, I would love to have a sauna, its on my list of plans this summer. thank you for watching and for your comment!
CATS are so cute. They all have there own personalities. One of our cats is having a love affair with the new lab retriever that we adopted. They are very cute. Our cats love to be brushed and they shed alot so brushing helps keep the hair under control.
awe they sound so cute, the lab and your cat are best friends!! I wish my cats liked being brushed, i have tried (started when they were kittens) brushing them and they don't let me, they run away lol but I still keep trying, maybe one day they will let me
You have a cozy and beautiful place in the woods. Removing the snow is a big job for sure. Keeping up with it like you are doing is the easiest way to go. It’s blowing and snowing today. Cold as well. Hoping we get a good snowstorm soon. ❄️💙
I hope you get a great snowstorm, im still waiting on the temps to cool down so I can have squeaky snow :) its so much work dealing with the snow, its a good workout for sure. I do love this little slice of woods that is all mine!
It really cooled down here today. Definitely squeaky snow weather but the colder the squeakier. When it dips below 14 degrees F then it’s squeaky snow time. Today it was 13F feeling like -8 with the wind chill. ❄️💙🥶🙌🏻
In my opinion, the only down side to living in the UP, is dealing with all the snow. But the natural beauty, especially in the summer makes up for it.
I don't know the black flies can be pretty annoying
its a different experience with all the snow for sure but like you said, all the natural beauty, makes up for it!
@@BBQNerd they are annoying for sure, but I wear this little gadget from amazon and it work, it keeps them away! its a fake dragonfly thing that you wear and it works, looks silly but it works
@@marieintheUPI hadn’t heard of that. But I would bet it would work good to keep the mosquitoes 🦟 away as well.
New subscriber by the way.
@@marklambert4793 than you for subscribing! I will have to show it in a video when it warms up and the bugs come out, everyone will get a good laugh because it looks so silly, but it works! I have a new gizmo for the mosquitoes, will post that info too!
I like to make what you made with the tortillas but I make a pizza with pizza sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and jalapeños. It’s really good 😉😉
that does sound really good, thank you for that idea, I will have to try it!
Metal roofs are great. I have 30 year old metal roof and love it. Had same problem with snow sliding. I installed just one row of snow brakes at the bottom of the roof. In my opinion if you install snow brakes you wouldn't need a tractor with a bucket for your property. ATV with a plow would be enough and you could use ATV in off season to ride trails and make great vlogs. CFMoto 600 2up highly recommend. It would be small enough to fit inside the garage between your cars and the garage door, backed in ready to go.
I will have to look into snow brakes, thanks for the advice. I really would like a ATV with a plow, that would be fun like you said!! im googling cf moto 600 2up right now!
ohhh I looked at it, its a nice one. now i'm in trouble because it would be so much fun!
@@marieintheUP comparing to others this one is priced way below competition and quality is way above the competition. I got plow on ebay shipped to Alaska from Ontario for a total 350. I have 2021 blue one, going plowing in 30 min
@@beebjnu3906 be safe and have fun out there! thank you for the info, it is really nice!
With all the snow piling up, you almost have to have some sort of tractor like a Bobcat (or know somebody with one) to move the big piles of snow that accumulate next to the house from your roof. If I move to the U.P. or some other heavy snowbelt area, I'm considering a Bobcat loader. They really move snow! Along with the 10 hp Toro snowblower I have now, I should be good.
you are right, I already had to have a tractor come and deal with my snow piles two weeks ago, luckily I have fantastic neighbors, I have been eying a tractor but im not making any decisions until I get through this winter, I am looking at atv's to add a plow and then have fun on atv in summer
Hello marie. Those quiasadias look good. You make me hungry everytime you have lunch. Walmart at 6 in the morning is the best time to shop, no crowds. In and out. I am glad to see you using that snow rake for the roof. Safety first. I work a dangerous job and they preach to us safety, safety, and more safety, which is a good thing so you you work in one piece. My dog rocky has his own bedroom with a bed. I tuck him in with a angry birds blanket and he loves it. Do you like any kind of pizza? Sunday is always a pizza day. I bet there some good mom and pop shops out your way. Well take care and happy new year!!!!!!!
hi! that makes me happy to hear, I do like sharing the food I make for lunch with you all! you are right about the early am time being the best time to shop at Walmart, i am going to have to get out early from now it, it is nice! safety first is so important, I am glad you are making sure to follow safety protocols at your job! awe it sounds like Rocky is living his best life with his own room and special angry birds blanket. there are some amazing mom and pop shops out here you are right! I love pizza, Friday's are my pizza day, I will have to make pizza for sure in a video, I like mine with chicken, onions and mushrooms, how do you like your pizza? happy new year to you too!
Hello marie, I love pizza with pepperoni. Pretty simple and as an appetizer I order a large cheesey bread with a dipping sauce. It's good stuff. Love it. Talk to you soon. Great videos
@@Joe-y4x simple but classic for a reason, you can't go wrong with a pepperoni pizza! and with cheesy bread and a dipping sauce, now that's living the good life!
Thanks for putting out a snow video. Yes, my cat loves warm laundry especially towels and bedding.
I'm sitting here sick, 😢 trying to nurse myself back to health.
Have you heard about the mega snowstorm of December 1995??
I have heard that something is going around right now, lots of people are getting sick. i hope you recover quickly, that is never fun to be sick. hopefully your cat is giving you lots of cuddles to help you! I had to look up the snowstorm of Dec 1995 and holy wow, 57 inches in 4 days, no thank you! that is intense, my arms can't lol!
Just think how good at shoveling after winter is over! I think it's time for a small tractor or atv with a plow
I am heavily considering an ATV with a plow
It is pretty watch it snow
I agree, the snow is so pretty!
After living in Rapid City SD for the last 45 years, where we don’t get anywhere near as much snow as you do. The Roof Razor, Roof Rake, Snowblower, and finally your manual (ergonomically correct 👍🏻) snow shovel are your tickets to a gym free life, while maintaining a rock hard body with an almost negative BMI. There are no short cuts or gimmicks, just plain old hard physical work. Had to laugh at Scruffy giving you, the what you doing in my hidey hole look 👀. Another entertaining video, 2025 is going to be a good year for an up and coming Yooper.
how are you doing Brad! you are so right, I have this amazing outdoor gym and all the snow tools I bought this winter are my outdoor nature gym, I am in the best shape and I had have to increase my food calories to stop from losing too much weight, the crisp clear air, its amazing. Im glad you caught his look, he was like get out of my spot lol
I spend alot of time collecting scrub wood and moving it up to the house to be cut up for supplemental firewood. We have alot of scrub cherry trees that were pushed over by snow 2 years ago. Keep the property cleaned up and gives me plenty of supplemental heating wood in addition to the wood we split and pay for.
you know all the good ways to save in this environment, keep the tips coming!!
your doing a wonderful job with thw snow removal I guess if nothing else it's good exercise messing with snow
its such a great workout, I do enjoy it!
😐,forgot to say stir all the contents when you add it to the casserole dish❄👋
Quesadilla's...I'm in! Love them. Have you tried putting some New Mexico Green Chili in with them? Killer taste.
I have had hatch green chilis in my quesadillas, I used to eat that when I lived out west! they are good
Your meal looked much better than mine. I just finished my lazy lunch, a tuna fish sandwich and a cup of tomato soup. Seeing your little shed, it looks like it would make a cozy reading room. It would have to be insulated better. Then add a pot bell stove, a rug, and a rocking chair. You sure don't need to join planet fitness, the snow removal will keep you in shape. Take care, John
tuna and tomato soup, that sounds good to me! the shed would make a cozy reading room, that is a great idea, and a stove, rug, insulation, rocking chair, yes I like the way you think! and you are right about the gym. the snow is keeping me in shape!
Haha hope you like SNOW being in the UP snow is your life now 😁 get a snowmobile an enjoy .. I shovel and blow both. Got a toro 824xl eats any storm with ease. Wished i was closer as work here is so slow i love to play in the snow i would come help for free but i am a bit far from you lol.
I am quickly realizing I need to really really love the snow haha because it has taken over my life :) I so want a snowmobile, its on my list! I have heard great things about Toro's, Im finding that just like you said, I use the shovel, blower, rake, all do so much! where do you live?
That looks like a pretty big area to be clearing with a shovel.
its a great workout!
Just noticed you have skylights on a shallow pitched roof that definitely isn’t helping with heat loss and leaks. When/if you put on new roof my suggestion is to get rid of those sky lights..put them in tea room porch that’s un heated
I wonder if that is why the entire roof section where the sky lights are had ice...I didn't put those in, I like them but I have wondered if they would cause problems. no leaks yet but could be causing heat loss, thanks for the idea, will see how things go this winter
2 of our cats do the same thing with the sheets/blankets! When we make the bed, the 2 girls ALWAYS like to get under the covers when we toss the sheets and/or blankets to spread them onto the bed. This even happens if we place a blanket on the couch to use. Great video and good luck with the snow clearing! Not much snow has fallen in Maine.
i am so happy to read your comment, I love that you have cats that do this same thing. its so cute and it must be comforting or something to the cats to be under the sheets/blankets, that is so cute that your cats even do that when you put a blanket on the couch, thank you for watching, Maine is such a beautiful place, maybe snow is one the way with this weekend cool down storm?
❤
When you walked to the back of the house and the Air Conditioner kicked on........is it an A/C unit or a heat pump? Looks like when that kicked on it dimmed your house lights. Hopefully it's NOT a heat pump. In the upper Midwest heat pumps in the winter just suck a lot of energy with no results. Cheers from Minnesota! Temp today is -1.
hi! it is a heat pump, it is new and its amazing, also this heat pumps is an ac, it sucks the hot air out of the house in the summer and pulls the hot air in, in the winter, I also have a propane furnace, because a heat pump can't work on it own once the temp drops to 40 degrees or lower. Both my propane bill and my electric bill have seen great results from having the heat pump and I am so happy I have one! have you had issues with a heat pump before? its. -1 here too! cheers in MN!
Hi Marie! How are you and the cats doing? How much snow did you get?
hi Steve, great to hear from you! so far it seems like we have a foot of snow, and its still going strong, how are you doing? the cats are great, they are all cuddled up taking cat naps
@@marieintheUP Not much happening here. Just some flurries. My cat is eating again and then sleeping or looking out the window. Have had five deer coming here for quite a while. I put corn out there every morning and here they all come. Watching from somewhere. A lot of birds too.

thank you so much, the good far outweighs the bad thankfully, but the bad is bad lol it will be good to talk about it with you all!
How much snow have you gotten? Sure looked like the UP was really gonna get it.
as of yesterday only about 8 inches, but its been snowing all night and its supposed to keep going today and tomorrow so I think there will be a lot more. it is super windy so there are snow drifts in my yard and I haven't dealt what that before so something new to learn :)
@@marieintheUP oh wow, stay safe!
UPM : At this hour it looks like all the viewers used the comments up. 😪
Soooooo your view count should be at 250,000 by the first week in March. Know what that means? All your viewers get a commemorative bag of mixed nuts. Seriously maybe a live blog would be something to consider. Anyway I got the Brownsville Food Pantry site on now and those deer are in a feeding frenzy. Snowed here today and am buried in possibly a trace of it on the grass. Adios M ⛄ 🦌
hi, a live blog is something I can do, if you all are interested in it, it sounds like a fun view to watch the deer eat. it sounds like you got a nice snow dusting! until next time!
Liked
I appreciate the like!
Do you feed the birds? That is fairly cheap entertainment, you would have some good birds being in the woods
I was going to but then my neighbors said it will attract the black bears, I think my cats would love watching the birds though, I would too!
A charming woman. Enjoying your channel.
Thank you for watching, I really appreciate your comment!
You are a resilient woman. And that's amazing. But it is only a matter of time before you buy a side-by-side with a plow. This is just a michigander speaking
I am already looking at atv's, would be a fun summer toy too!
0:20 uh. No. Not the last day of snow by far.
Marie is your location top secret, or have you said if your east or west in the UP. I'm gonna try to find some snowmobile club info for your area, but completely understand if your not wanting that public. Happy Friday
hi! I am in the eastern UP, if you find any I am okay with you sharing any names of snowmobile clubs, I keep my town top secret but I have no doubt any club will be in a city so I am okay with that, happy friday to you too!

I swear, I'm going buy you a scoop! 😂 I have 2. A big authentic "Yooper Scoop" made in Ironwood. It's heavy, but holds high capacity. I also have a lite duty plastic scoop I got at Menards. Light weight. Less capacity, but easier to push. It would be perfect for you. I loved your dancing moves, or perhaps ninja skills. Hard to know in fast motion. Lol. 🥷
I really do need a scoop and that lite duty plastic scoop sounds perfect! im going to see if I can order it online from Menards because there isn't one close to me. the shovel I use doesn't get enough of the snow each go. they are dancing moves, I need to show some of that in my videos, Im out here everyday dancing in the yard lol also, thoughts on a atv? I know you have a nice one. im looking at this cfmoto cforce 600- its nice, a bit pricey, thoughts on what kind of atv would be good for me?
@marieintheUP ok dancing. The way you were twirling that shovel, it thought maybe you were fighting. Yes, more dancing to the snow gods! The scoop from Menards is black, with a metal edge, if that helps. I have a CFMoto Overland 1000. It's BIG. But I wanted enough power to push snow. Looking back, I would have gone with the 800. You can get a smaller plow for a 600. It will handle up to 4 or 5 inches. CFMoto typically comes standard with a winch for lifting/lowering plow. Other ATV manufacturers charge extra to install a winch. There are lots of TH-cams on the topic.
I couldn't find my scoop on Menards site. 22 inch "Suncast" on Walmart site would be good. Also, don't ever buy a "wheeled" shovel. Those only work on real smooth surfaces such as concrete sidewalks/driveways.
@@Yooperglide lol my dancing can most def look like ninja fighting too! I wasn't able to find that scooper so I started looking at ace, I can check out walmart, that would be easier than ace- I was wondering about those wheeled shovels, good to know. thank you!
