Ken fired up our snow blower (first time in ? years) and did our driveway which looked exactly like yours. We too are not enjoying our first winter back in Canada in several years. But, as yourself, it was necessary. We are already looking forward to getting south in November. Take care and I have a feeling we might be using that snow blower a few more times.

AND, be sure and be bundled up from head to toe. I haven't used one in a few years. Our old one wasn't worth prepping for another season, so it went out to the curb a while back. I might look into buying another one but these days, I'm not in that much of a hurry to clear the snow any more.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.com
