Blowing away 2010

Well, I blew away what was left of 2010. We got between 10 and 12 inches of snow which made for some snow blower fun. Or, not so much fun. I will say that at least I didn't have to shovel it, because that would have taken me 6-8 hours at least, depending on how much I had to stop for the back pain. But, the snow blower did it's work, but the wind made it miserable. I ended up spending about 3 hours total blowing the snow around. It doesn't quite rival last year's storm at Christmas, but it's still bad enough. I'd estimate that we'd be able to take that amount of snow again, but after that, problems are going to start. If we get more than 24 inches the rest of winter, I'm going to run out of places to put it. Some people have the luxury of putting snow on both sides of their driveway, but since people live in the house next to us, I don't quite have that luxury. More than 24 inches of snow, and we'll have to consider the same thing we did last year, and that's piling snow in the middle between the driveways with a narrow escape for both of us. Hope the rest of winter is much calmer.
