Neighbors in Snow

in #life6 years ago (edited)

The below is a picture of the path a neighbor helped me dig in the snow yesterday. We actually cleared the entire section around my car and a path for the car to the road through the almost 4 foot berm the plow had left blocking my entire drive.

It was all women digging folks out yesterday. Seems like today it's the turn of the men in the neighborhood to dig out a couple more. This is all middle aged people digging so far, but we're trying to entice a younger man to take it on as a little side job for extra money. We middle aged folk just get it done, but we'd rather everyone (ourselves included) just pay someone.

More on the way today, tomorrow and 2 days next week. Can't wait for my trip to Austin to start.

And miss all the fun??? :P:P

Most definitely.

Wow!!! The snow really looks thick. How many degrees is it there now?

It's 22 degrees Fahrenheit right now. Very light snow. Will probably walk the dog in about an hour.

I would have never thought that much snow falls there! However, you have to admit it looks beautiful.

As long as I'm satisfied not going anywhere. As soon the dog needs to go out or I need to get mail or groceries, not so lovely.

I wish to have enough knowledge to create a new tool to melt all that snow and be payed for that job... I would be rich!

It really just comes down to a shovel and then salt. But it takes a lot of physical effort better designed for young bodies.
