Trigger pulled. Snow blower on its way.



You can thank me now for all the snow that doesn't fall this year.

The good ones, yes. But still cheaper than physical therapy and doctor's bills.

I remembered the one that I picked out last year... Ariens 920021.

As I understand it, I pretty much have to go with a 2-stage blower because of the gravel driveway. I can't remember exactly why but a single stage can't cope with that. Ariens blowers are re-branded Husqvarna units and are generally considered to be great for Harry Homeowner types such as myself.

This is the one that I want. Just need to find it somewhere...
I have a husky like this: My link
i have a husky too.



the real solution to snow.

I admit that it is a luxury item that I don't "need" but, damnit, I ain't getting any younger and if this year is going to be as bad as the weather forecasters have been hinting about, it is bordering on a "need."

I am SO not shoveling 20 inches plus of snow from that 80 foot driveway AGAIN.

We had a real warm winter in 2011-12 when I bought my blower, so

We have been through this... Jeeps are no good for moving snow. Besides, the plow package is way more than a grand.
