Seriously, I was just getting ready to shovel -- in fact, I had one shoe on one foot and one boot on the other -- when there was a knock on the door. A couple of college kids in a pick-up truck with a heavy duty snow blower asked if I'd be interested in having them clear the driveway for me. I decided that this must be why I had an irresistible urge to go to the ATM Sunday afternoon!
The snow was about 8 inches deep. Unlike our previous "dry, powdery" snows, this was wet and dense -- about like shovelling a path through deep mud. Best money I ever spent!
And I still get to relax with a glass of zinfandel, as if I'd done it myself!
