While we were doing the Groundhog thing in Ohio, it apparently snowed in Pittsburgh.
What we found when we returned home Sunday afternoon. Yeah, there would be shoveling before I could go to work.
The cedar above the driveway clearly wasn't digging all the snow.Neither did the cedars in the backyard, although we didn't notice until Monday night.I stayed home on Monday, to accomplish one task: to make this...... look like this. Just in time to do it all over again.
With the exception of the sidewalk in front of the house — generously cleared by a neighbor with a blower — it was all shovel. We had to clear the walk in front of the house and the bottom of the driveway on Sunday when we got home; I did the rest on Monday.
And it looks like we’ll be doing it again tonight. Wheeee!
E: Yep. Mrs. Crappy’s Fit was unavailable until I dug it out yesterday. That took about two hours; it would have been more, but I elected not to clear the avalanche zone at the bottom of the driveway.
I am right there with you. I drove my Camry today for the first time since Friday. Someone finally came to plow us and my in-laws out (to the tune on $250) yesterday. I don’t know what today is going to bring, but I have to uncover my front walk, which got plowed under again yesterday. Also, I need to unfreeze the bucket of salt on my front porch. All this while containing the children. Joy!
RPM: Having to keep the girls entertained would add a whole new dimension to SnOMG. Keeping Miles happy pretty much means not waking him up from his afternoon nap…

Shoveling or snowblower, either way that’s a mighty impressive job!

Was that a car buried under there? How long did it take to do all that?

So — how much snow did you guys get?
