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 of that picture a lot. With some effort I was able to clear the driveway in short order. It was messy but any car would be able to make it up that ramp.
It all was good afterwards, except Friday night and Saturday morning it snowed again and all my work was for naught. On top of that, Saturday my back started to hurt. Today I plan to take it easy and go outside and salt the driveway. If I can I’ll gas up the snow thrower and see if that helps.
It will be fun but no matter how long it takes I need to clear that driveway. The kids still have school and my folks need to be able to use their mini van.
Update: Let’s hear it for warmer weather, some rain, and Lily. She and I went out and scraped all the ice off of the driveway.
I wanted to stop much sooner but she kept us till my folks car could come and go without touching any ice.
She’s always been much more determined than I am.
