An insane amount of ice...close to 3 inches of solid ice on the ground. Took some flat metal blade old garden tool and have worked my ass off today.

I probably spent a good 1.5 hours shoveling my driveway and back deck for the dog. It would have went quicker had i got my better snow shovel out of the shed sooner. I didn’t realize how much the one I had been using sucked. 

I should get a snowblower next year but I don’t mind shoveling. When the kids are home and my wife is sleeping from working the night before, shoveling is the only workout I’ll get to today.

The stuff we have the snowblowers are useless.

If no tractor or truck blade....this is about the only option. Once you get it going it goes pretty good as long as there aren’t prior tracks from car tires.

We’re up to 18-28 inches in my yard, depending on where I measure. Had none last night at midnight and 8 when we woke up. I’m have ski reservations both days next weekend but will probably call out sick on Wednesday after the plows hit the pass and head to Winter Park.
