No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I noticed that the sunrise has started to migrate farther north. Signs that spring is on its way. Two months away.<\/p>\n

We are about to have 10 days of spring weather. We went from an extreme cold warning to a heavy snowfall warning, to an extreme wind warning. All in the same week.<\/p>\n

From -45 to plus 9.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I shovelled 30 ft of driveway, deep snow. I will try to do more today. I hope\u00a0 I can get a little further before the snow gets too heavy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shovelling, tired out now, the snow is heavier than yesterday. So far 75 feet total shovelled, another 75 feet to go, and I am done. But for today I have gone as far as I can.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Halfway there. The body has quit for today.<\/p><\/div>\n

Gen is gassed and running. Going ride around in a tank and blow shit up.

\nI am not sure why, but a 4-foot deep and 8 foot wide by 16-foot pile of ice and snow was left at the foot of my driveway by the grader. This isn’t the first time.<\/p>\n
