We have a video on plowing snow in Bellvue with a Kubota BX23s tractor. Publisher of North Forty News, Blaine Howerton, is creating the series to create awareness about living in the Colorado Burn areas. The series highlights the challenges of living in these areas and the ways Blaine is overcoming those challenges.
