All day yesterday it snowed from around midnight to at least 11:30 PM. Several times I went out and cleared the driveway. Around the end of my second pass I noticed that the oil cap came off on my snow thrower and oil was burning. I shut it down and replaced the cap.
Later on when [...]

Last Friday night the LIRR was talking about if 10 inches of snow fall, then they will shut down the entire train system. That only sounds bad since last time it snowed some poor people were kidnapped and held hostage against their will for many hours on a disabled train. The idea is that it [...]

Looks like I will have to use the snow thrower after all. Good thing it’s all gassed up. I started it yesterday before the snow came down.

It started snowing last night. Not a lot in an hour, but it did not stop. Now schools are closed and the roads are dicey.
In a very short while I’ll head out and clear the driveway.

And thus it starts. No, the snow thrower is not gassed up. It started a little while ago; I was expecting rain.
Sigh, it’s like Lily saying to me “Not smart enough to come out of the rain” only with snow.

It snowed here Friday, so when I got home I started shoveling before I even went inside. My driveway is on a slope so if you don’t drive an SUV (I do) then going up the ramp is a problem.
This picture is me 2 years ago when I had some forethought. Friday night I thought [...]

This morning the kids woke up to snow on the ground. It’s still snowing lightly and after I run some errands I’ll take some pictures.

Used the snow thrower on the driveway. The snow was actually not bad at all.
