First Shovel of 2014

This morning, I shoveled for the first time this winter season. An inch of snow covered the leaves on the driveway, with a skiff elsewhere. My shovel broke halfway through. That’s the third yard tool I’ve gone through this fall, after breaking the handles of two rakes last month.

New Snowblower!

Here I am – the proud new owner of a Simplicity 28 inch snowblower. It has heated handles, a built in light, electronic spout adjustments, and so so so much more! I will miss the Ariens snowblower. It didn’t deserve to kick the bucket so soon, but I learned a lesson – check for oil at least once a year!

Grandpa R, anytime you need a snowblower, let me know! I owe you one.
