    I moved out in 1990. Talk about the best move I ever made. The South is great and Southerners are great people.

    Haven't shoveled yet, but February can be a hungry polar bear in PA.

    Just plain old rude weather here. Rainy and cold. I do outside work between drops..........
    I found the secret to keeping the snow at bay. I simply break out the 5 year old NEW snow thrower (which I haven't needed to use in 4 years).
    I break it out, service it, and the snow stays away..........

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    Yes, I suppose there are lots of places where that would be an option. I like it.

    I don't shovel my parking spot. I just park on top of the snow. It is pretty funny.
