Wow Jim, If I’m reading this right, it looks like your neighbors snow blower broke your window.

Did he know he did it? Has he done anything to fix it?

Its march 12 and we just got another 3 inches of snow here in Alaska… When will spring arrive!?

Be careful! You should NEVER put your hand inside a snowblower that has stopped/become clogged. Even with the engine off, the blades can recoil when something becomes dislodged and you can loose a finger or two! Seriously! Use the butt end of a broom or something but NEVER reach your hand in there. I worked in a hospital for a few years and every big snow day, the ER would process 4 or 5 people who’d lost fingers doing this very thing.

PS: You should consider applying for fundage from the Leatherman Wave company…They’re getting some great product placement from you!

Snow season is getting closer by the day and you need to prepare yourself for removing all of that lovely snow. Get rid of your shovel this winter and try something new, you will be glad you did. Oh, and your back will thank you too. Check out the Dakota SnoBlade at my blog. This will be my third winter with mine and I will never look at a shovel the same way again. Make short work of snow removal and get back inside the house to stay warm.

Yeh, snow removal is not fun!! One bad thing that happen one winter when we got 3 feet of snow dumped on us, was that my Husband lost his wedding ring somewhere in all that snow. He rented a metal detector, but didn’t know where to begin to look for it. He never found it. I wonder what became of it.

We used to get a lot of snow in Britain but now we hardly get any. Good old global warming.
