I can handle 6 to 8 inches of snow w/ my blower. 10-16 inches???....I'll call my guy. Or I'll do the smart thing and stay home. We are really stocked and there is no need to go anywhere. My girl's hubby has already clean off his car and parking space so he can take her to work and back. I guess it is good sometimes to park outside. I prefer a garage myself.

It is snowing again. This is pretty heavy/wet snow. Now a blizard is going to drop more? That's it, I staying inside. My son is making a huge snowman in the back yard and Mom can't keep away from looking out the windows. I agree. Bye. I'm gonna look at snow and not a laptop. LOL
