I love shovelling snow.

I had a good time shoveling! I spoke to more of my neighbors today than any previous two months combined and I feel especially accomplished. I even found the ice melt. <<>>>

Started shoveling at 8:15. Around 9ish, my cousin in law came out and brushed off two cars. I continued to shovel snow. Around 9:30 my brother-in-law made food. I ate some. I continued to shovel. Around 10:15ish my sister-in-law, cousin-in-law and her boyfriend cleared off other cars. I continued to shovel snow. Around 12:30 I finally finished shoveling snow.

I still hate shoveling snow.

I really do too, but E just paid some kids to do his driveway and excavate my car. i'm actually kinda bummed.

I'm glad for you! Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

CK bought a big! strong! snowblower on Friday. On Saturday, he made paths all around the house, out to the two main goat-gates and the hay barn, and cleaned all the way up the driveway at a width wide enough for one car... twice. I'd say that the snowblower has already paid for itself in convenience.

Today, I cleaned off two of the three cars: my car and the truck. I figure that those two vehicles give us all the options we need. My car has snow chains already on it, and the truck has 4x4 optional.

I miss the neighborly part of being in the suburbs during a "good" snow. It was a lot of fun working together to get everyone cleaned out, grousing about the snowplow berms against the driveways, etc.

If certain people insist on going to BWI, they have to shovel snow. I was nice and warm in bed waiting for you to finish shoveling. *GRIN* I still can't get over the chaos all the nitwits trying to drive around in the wrong cars caused being on the interstate this morning. I saw 20 plus car wrecks!

Given the amount of land you have, and where you lived, I had expected you had a Big! Strong! snowblower already. Glad you found the new one helpful.

I had an interesting convo with someone walking down the street with some groceries who was from Denver, which is amusing since I'm in Denver now. :)

Heh. I'm in Denver, so find a different sucker. Of course you probably could have C try to entice me :)

We have a tractor with a back-blade, which is reasonable for reasonable amounts of snow. 20 inches is not reasonable for a back-blade - it rolls right over it.

Hey, it was worth a try!
