Sorry you;'re getting hit like that Richard. Do you have your John Deere to clear the drive yet?

Woke up to see my driveway and sidewalk in front cleared.
Guy two houses up normally does but new guy who bought the house next door also has a snow thrower.
I'll have to ask them to leave a bit for me to shovel. It just wouldn't feel like winter without a bit of shoveling.

Come on down, Don...you can shovel my driveway, because I sure as hell
am not going to do it. It's about 7" of powdery white stuff, but it is
also 10F outside, with a wind. :)

Sounds like it's warmer up here. -5C according to my new weather station.

I was just out on an exploratory run. Our little street hasn't been
plowed, but the street leading to the state road has...but it is like an
ice-skating rink, and it is cold and windy. :)

It was 50 this morning when I walked Ed but with 15 out of the north
it felt more like 35-40. If it gets much colder I may need my hat.

Nope. Gave it to my neighbor when we sold the house. Still have the
plow for my truck but really can't use it where we are living right now.
I did some shoveling for a while, thought better of it, and hired a guy
with a Bobcat to do the driveway.
