We've had 40+ inches in the D.C. suburbs over the last five days (two different storms). I dutifully shoveled out my two car driveway from the first storm (26-28"), then dug our way out to the street when the snowplow only cleared the opposite side of the street three days later, then helped a few other folks in the neighborhood....oh my achin' back. Now I'm looking at 16" of fresh snow and wondering how long it will take the sun to take care of it for me (i.e., screw the shoveling). Although now I can't help wondering what would be the better option....a nice shiny new snowblower, a small tractor with a blade on the front, or maybe a used Bobcat. ;-)

One of the local churches put the following message on it's sign: "Whoever is praying for snow, please stop". I couldn't agree more.
