    Yikes. And I thought we had it bad because we still have 2 feet on the front lawn and another 6 inches coming tonight.
    At least here in Massachusetts, it should melt off by the end of the month.

    Thats nuts!

    I can remember living in Henderson KY, as a kid, and my mom having to call the neighbor to come shovel out the front door.
    We could not get out of the house.

    Hey Red,

    Running the snow blower over the lawn does not constitute "mowing" the lawn.

    Thanks all for the heart felt empathy you've shown as you discuss how tall your grass is and the last time you mowed. That's what I like about this place, if you trip and fall, there's always someone who'll bend over and...kick ya a few times Funny thing, last year it was 21c on St. Paddy's Day and we're walking around in shorts. Global warming must have taken a year off.

    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    That picture is a bit misleading I'm afraid. :) Winnipeg has only gotten 5 feet total of snow ALL winter. What everyone is seeing is the hill from shoveling the driveway. The right angle and I can make my house look the same. Some citizens have drifts and hills 10 feet high in some areas from it blowing.

    We certainly have no where to put it...
