Yep. Snowblower is key. My driveway would take me a few hours to shovel, and that’s valuable skiing time!

Plus a decent Ariens blower is like $1200 and lasts 10+ years; cheaper than a plow guy (plus no lawn damage), and cheaper than your hospital/chiropractor/specialist visit from blowing your back out on the plow line.

I am totally with you on this. I snowblowed around noon-thirty and didn't have to again. Unfortunately my neighbors with northeast facing driveways did not have the same luxury. Yesterday afternoon while it was still coming down I noticed a little sun trying to break through the clouds and my driveway just melted like crazy. They were like, wait, you never went back out, how is it shoveled?
