Getting our asses handed to us down in the Southcoast of MA.

So. Much. Snow.


The lady and the doggy at the end of the driveway. We live on a state road and get molly-whooped by the plows at the end of the drive. Its a BITCH to shovel.

That drift on the roof is about 3-4'.

Snows was well above my knees in the driveway this morning.

This isn't a drift...

The lady with the pup after we finally finished digging out.

What have I learned? This shit feels hopeless until you get a good rhythm going. It would have SUCKED to be in Buffalo at the beginning of the year.

Pic from inside Pats lodge.
Did not spend much time in there, just to eat considering no one was there we thought why not.
Did not have enough time to take pics while skiing. Too deep!!

Frapcap....do yourself a favor and pick up a snowblower!...especially to blow the stuff downstream from your driveway(as the plow goes). Lived in the Boston burbs for 20+/- yrs....I know how the So.Shore gets hammered. Am on a small street and am on an incline = get drifting and hammered by the plow if I don't do the preventitive downstream blowing at end of driveway.

We GET these storms in NNY alot , have Big honkin Ariens and ALWAYS plow three to four times the width of the driveway at the opening to solve this issue . Our plow guys up here drive serious equipment use 2 trucks together and crete monster swaths sevral times a day ....so it is always wise to plan to over widen the driveway entrance and blow the snee downstream
