Busted my arse shoveling snow this evening. A wet heavy snow ... snowblower kept bogging down because of the slush and ice.

I got about 4 total, but only like 1" on drive and walk way stuck. It was 36 degrees most of the day! Maybe I just got lucky this time!

I use to wax the living daylights out of my mounted Deere blowers, shoot, fan blades (on the 2 stage) and even the augers. It'd work good for awhile... Even used slip plate for awhile (had that on my V-Blade at work). Over-all, just found it much faster and better just using the blade on wet heavy snow. Threw my shovel away years ago... :)

You guys are doing it all wrong. I bought my wife a brand new shovel for a present and told her it fit her hands perfectly. I will let you know when I get out of the hospital! LOL!

We had temps in the 40's with drizzling rain. Not great, but better than snow!

I got two inches yesterday. No biggie!

But 5 to 9 forecast for Wednesday. Now we're talking.

Get a snowblower. I got lucky and found an older guy who wasn't go to do it anymore.
I bought his well cared for 20 year old snowblower for $200.
No more arse busting. I can clear 1600 square feet in under an hour.

I've got one, the snow was so wet and slushy yesterday, the augers and thrower blade kept getting all clogged up with ice and slush ...

The snow we got was perfect for snowball fights and snowman making ...
