Again today we got 8"ish of snow. My arms hurt and back aches from shoveling. My DH came up with a solution. We don't have a snow blower per se but he does have a leaf blower.

Paco the lawn boy saves the day again.

An all-season tool!

Those things are great!! We also used ours to burn brush out back, they stoke a huge bonfire like nothing else!! It's better than pouring gasoline on it!!

yep hubby uses his leaf blower as well! works pretty good too!

As long as its light fluffy snow, it'll work. good thinking!

That's great

In Colorado you usually want a push broom, so I bet a blower would be perfect. Snow blowers just pack the powder into ice, here.

I was gonna say, for us non snow folks. What did the blower actually do? Blow the fluffy stuff?

 

[abifae]

Yeh. Our snow is powder and VERY light.

East coast snow is full of water and heavy. Can't just blow it easily LOL.

This storm was very light snow. I am so use to heavy snow that I almost fell over when lifting a shovel full. It was too light and I was over compensating, thinking it was heavy. It took no time to clear the walkways and driveways.
