Throwing snow, again!

I had to blow my driveway and sidewalk twice on Monday and on Tuesday morning. I'm tired of the snow! Glad I bought this new snowblower at Home Depot earlier this winter. Link here

A snow blower! That is something that is NOT sold in our shops. Very interesting.

It looks a little odd to me. I guess I pictured it differently but it doesn't look like the typical machine I'm used to seeing. Perhaps I should take another careful scrutiny of the photo.

I'm with Gordon--something we don't see out this way. Oh, you have to have snow first. Duh!!!

Good idea about Meals for Haiti---thank you. MB

Well, at least you have something to do during those long, cold winter days! And it's good you're not eating all the time!

Funny, though, you're so full of hot air, you could blow the driveway clear without this machine that you bought at Home Depot earlier this year!

Is the snow blower strong enough to blow snow to D.C.? «Louis» heard they've been wishing for a little snow there...

Lois said...

So that's what one looks like!

Now here is something I've never seen (live, I mean...)! :-)

Beats shoveling....

jamais vu ça, c'est surprenant

So that's what a snowblower looks like! I'm actually quite happy that I have no need for one of these contraptions.

Hello Leif,
It sounds you are fed up with that endless winter snow....It reminds me of a famous song of the 60ies that I invite you to share with me! Just use the following URL:

Hey, Leif, aim that snow blower southward towards Houston...I wouldn't mind seeing a little of that pretty snow down here. I do miss Wisconsin!

Lieber Leif,

ich wollte mal 'Hallo' sagen damit Du nicht denkst das ich wieder verschwunden bin.

Ich habe die letzten 3 Wochen keine Posts gemacht. Das Wetter ist so eine Katastrophe in Berlin...die Strassen sind so glatt das man gar nicht weiss wie man laufen soll. Das geht jetzt schon seit 7 Wochen so ohne Pause. Und es ist keine Besserung in Sicht. Das ist für Berlin der schlimmste Winter seit 30 Jahren.

Wie sieht es bei euch in Eagan aus? Washington hat es ja auch ganz schön vom Schnee erwischt.

Morgen beginnt bei uns die Berlinale in Berlin das ist so wie in Cannes die Filmfestspiele. Vielleicht schaffe ich es ja noch da ein paar Bilder zu machen.

Erst mal herzliche Grüsse aus Horror Berlin

Hahaha! You should move to Ontario. We've had very little snow this year. My fingers are crossed that the rest of winter has only flurries. :)

Still warmer outside, than inside me fridge, leaves chances pretty much to zero, that there will be snow around soon.
Never heard or saw something alike - learned something tonight, thank you.
A wonderful Thursday for you all.

Wow, I never know there's such a thing like snowblower. For a tropical person like me, that tool sound so fun. Is it fun? ^__^

Pat said...

I'm sure they are handy and I would probably have one, but they sure are noisy. Leaf blowers, too! Pass the rake!

VP said...

It's the third time they announce snow here, but nothing happens. Probably it's better this way...

Andreea said...

To be honest, I'm tired of snow too. It's been snowing like crazy this winter, I think we already had 7 or 8 snows, and since it's only mid February, there's place for more :( The last one was three days ago. I for one am ready for spring :)

No need for this here, thank Gof for this! Should it ever snow here, we'd be glad just to admire the white. But it won't happen. More a summer wonderland here soon. One month till it's warm enough for the beach, yeah!
