i went out about an hour ago and discovered that there was more snow then i thought, about 6", so to stay ahead of the game i ran the snow blower, we get too much snow up here and i'm too old to shovel that white ____, it's probably snowed an inch or two since i blew the snow but i don't like to let it get too far ahead of me, the blower will handle more then 6" but it's too much like work for me...will keep an eye on it.....would like to finish the job tonight if the snow stops so i don't have to get up too early tomorrow
