The snow has stopped...the sun is out and I wish I had more salt!

Lowes sold out of rock/ice melting salt in our area a long time ago. I wish I had some because after finally shoveling the last time I think.......at least for this blizzard .....if I had some salt to put down now.....combined with the sun my drive would be completely snow/ice-free and dry! Oh well.......at least I am shoveled out......including what the snow plow left behind at the end of my drive when he finally came by a few minutes ago! This is what it looks like now! I am not sure how much we got but each time I went out I had well over 6 inches. The third time I shoveled my drifts in the drive were all over 2-feet deep. So I love to shovel and am ANAL about leaving snow behind.....which is why I wish I had more salt. I went out and shoveled up everything the plow left....and even a spot for my mailman to be able to pull in by my mailbox. I hope the plow does not come by again and plow everything in again!

Ohio Blizzard, Darke County, March 7-8, 2008

I have shoveled THREE times now...this last time through 2-3 foot drifts......it is still snowing very hard and blowing like crazy. I shoveled 3 foot PLUS barriers on each side of my drive...and packed the snow down.....so hopefully it won't drift over so bad this next time. Noah and I are obviously snug indoors!
