Abstract

The snow was still falling, although lightly now and with fewer flakes, as I stared out the bedroom window on the morning of January 4.

But last night’s snowstorm had made a mess of the driveway, and I knew the only way my family and I were getting out of the house today was to start digging now. The storm had deposited about six inches of heavy snow, and it took about an hour to carve a clear path from the garage to the street. Time to invest in a snowblower, I thought.
