Weary walk

We have about six inches of snow on the ground, and the temperature is hovering around freezing, so the snow won’t be going anywhere for a while. Rather than spend the money to have our plow guy come over and clear our driveway, Pepper and I decided to have a go at it. We pulled out our matching wide-scoop shovels and headed down the blacktop. We clear parallel tracks just wide enough for the car wheels. Luckily the snow wasn’t too wet, although it was hardly powder either. We spent about an hour making tracks and doing extra work on the switchbacks, where it’s particularly treacherous.

After our work, we headed back up. Our security camera caught me trudging past.

It’s hard exercise, which I suppose is a good thing, but sheesh, this driveway…
