I've made one pass at the snow with the s-blower. That was about 8:30 this AM. It's 11:15 or so now and it needs to be done again or it's more than my single stage blower will handle.....But I'll tell ya, I did mine, and 3 of my neighbors in less time than I could have done mine alone, withOUT the blower!! Love the blower!!!!!!!!

Morning Maryland!
Hey Bud, looks like I got my wish
. Just got in from shoveling, I'm sure I'll have to do it again soon. Then off to Mom & Dad's at some point to do their sidewalks - put my son to work too! Try to squeeze some sledding time in as well. Oh, and the wife wants to go to the mall.

You are plain NUTS Jr! What happened to the offer of a "BUDDY" and his 4WD?
Well, did round two of the s-blowing....After making a pass I looked behind me and the dang falling snow had my path covered before I finished the run!!!! Still gotta knock it down or my poor little single stage blower won't be able to get thru the snow it'll be so high!
BTW, it is over 12" deep now...still got the rest of the day and half the night to go of new snow!

Afternoon Bud and the rest of the MD gang. Take it easy with the snow removal and be safe out on the roads. There is no snow predicted for me from this storm as it is far enough south that it will only reach the PA/NY state line which is a good 2 hour drive from me.

Got the 8' bed full (and then some) of snow for weight if I HAVE to go out, but not planning on it......hospital didn't call me, so I guess they don't need me to drive Docs and Nurses to/from homes to/from work.
I have blown the walks and driveway twice now and the snow is winning....I'm not going out again until it stops - which is tomorrow!
Can't believe we have more snow than you.... this is breaking not only December records, it may break the all-time snow amount for Baltimore area for all time....we'll see.
