plowing with dad

Plowing with my dad By Jordan

One
Friday night 2 years ago my grandmother picked my sister and me up
because my dad was plowing. We went to my grandparents' house. About
nine o' clock my dad stopped in to my grandparents'. He asked my
sister and me if we wanted to go with him plowing. I said, “Sure,
I will go plowing with you.”

He said, “Okay.”

My sister
said, “ Dad I do not want to go.”He told her that was
okay.

After my dad and I left my grandparents house we
stopped at a store in Dover to get drinks. We went in The Store. He
asked me if I wanted to get a hot chocolate or a drink from the
cooler. I said, “Sure, I'll get a root beer”. Then my dad
and I went to the truck to start plowing. We got in the Dodge Ram
1500.There was about 8 inches of snow on the ground; the snow was
coming down hard. First we plowed Dover. That did not take more than
20 minutes because we only had to plow a couple driveways.

My
dads hand was resting on the steering wheel of the pickup truck I
could see from the dash light shining. The other hand was using the
plow remote when he was talking to me “how did school go today”
I said good. Then we went to Milo. That took a while. When we were in
milo I got to run the plow on the plow truck it was fun. There was
this one driveway that the owner shoveled, but the snow that he left
at the end of his driveway froze. That hurt when dad hit the pile of
snow. It shook both of us.

Then we went to Sebec Village. That took the longest.
When we were plowing we talked about how I was doing in school. I
said, “I'm doing good in school. How did your day go dad?”

He said, “My
day was okay kind of boring” . Then we started talking about
snowmobiling, and he asked me, “Do you have your snow stuff,
Jordan?”

I said, “Yes.”

He said,
“Alright.”

After we finished plowing we went back to my
grandparents' house. It was about eleven o'clock.

I went in side. My grandmother was in the living room.
She asked me if I had a good time I said yes I did. I asked her if my
sister was asleep she said she fell a sleep a while ago. My dad
walked through the door. My grandmother asked him if he had a long
day. I told my grandmother that I got to run the plow on the plow
truck. The plow has a remote that controls it instead of a lever.
She said that must have been fun I said yes it was. So that was the
night I spent plowing with my dad with- out my little sister.
