I've only used my snow blower once this year and that took 10 minutes as it was slush, so I shoveled..........ouch!

we had 3 inches overnight.

my driveway to my garage is 100 feet

my neighbours is 110 feet and I did his to save him coming home from work and having to do it..

why did no one tell me snow blowers have a reverse gear?:-5

I couldn't see the gears as they had snow on them.:-5

omg....my back and legs from manually turning this monster!:yh_cry

is it just me?

On the news right now, the governor is saying "do not stick your hands in the snow blower, we have too many injuries down at the hospitals already."

I will use mine later today, it is powder right now, it will at least get down to the layer of ice.

Yes, I unplug mine and clean it out, then plug it in again.

But not right now, still a blizzard right now.
