    Ok - Now I will tell you to go clean it off hahahah - we had a good 12" mostly light and fluffy... but the stuff on the parking lot was heavy. The snow compacts real fast - great for snowballs!!! ... the wife wasnt so happy about that ahhahahah!

    We figured we'd get a jump on it and clean half of it off as its still coming down good. Plow guy came while we were out there and the ground was covered again by the time we finished.

    I did a first pass with the blower a few hours ago. Had about 10-12", but light and fluffy so it was easy. Left the end of the driveway intact so I'd only have to do it once. Looks like the snow is about stopped so I guess I'll have to get out and do a final pass later.

    Yeah, I'm not sure about Sherman.
    3-4 years ago I'd have been thrilled to have him. Now? Meh.
    Even if the Pats sign him I don't see him lasting long. They have a pretty strict "don't run your mouth" policy and he's got a serious case of (what seems to be incurable) verbal diarrhea.

    @jztacoma , there is a good app to use to track the baby stuff. It's called baby teacher newborn and is free. It can be linked between phones.

    Not sure if we even reached that much here. What little we had before I went to work, was enough to clog the blower up.

    Looks like I am about done, maybe 2-4 more inches over the next day, which isn't a big deal. Happy we didn't get a 20+ again.

    New thing I tried this year is use my truck ramps to get the snowblower up on the deck. Huuuge back saver! 17” here so far. Looks to be mostly done for now.

    Nice! I’ve got a 32x12 deck that sucks shoveling. New thing I did this year was...stopped shoveling it haha. Hoping to move next year and this deck is solid so I don’t see any damage happening. It’s only a few years old too.

    I do the same except I had made a ramp for when Biscotti had leg surgery and was in a cast etc. Now i drag it to the steps and its the perfect size for the blower. Also used it to get the old washer/dryer out on a dolly and to bring in the new ones. It's also got a grippy rug screwed into it on top

    Yea mine would hold the weight, it actually has a conrete foundation underneath and it’s a bonus storage room. I like to keep it clear so water doesn’t build up against the house.

    Snuck out of work a bit early (4:30) since there was practically no one there, to come home and clean the driveway.

    We didn't get much... roads were clear, could have had school and daycare, but whatever.

    The kiddos had already been outside playing on the back deck earlier, then napped, so when I got home I took them out again to "help" me clean the driveway. Youngest got tired real fast, oldest was out there with his little toy shovel cleaning away. Yes!!!!!!

    Yeah I went out a few min ago and cleared it off!

    My lot has not been plowed at all! So I figured maybe I'd try and see if I could pull the truck out...
