slngsht Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 We live in a cul-de-sac. Everyone is pretty friendly, except this one neighbor who never comes to any picnics, doesn't really talk to anybody, etc... This guy has a snow blower. The few times when there has been enough snow for it to matter, he brings out, blows out his driveway, puts it back in, as everyone else is shoveling snow. No biggie - his blower, his choice. We got about 20" yesterday. I noticed he is shoveling his driveway by himself. Went over and asked him what happened to his snow blower. Doesn't start... pulled the plug, it looked fine, but no spark. Oh well, if it was another neighbor, I might have called around and tried to find a coil, or magneto, or whatever. Gotta admit, shoveling looks good on him. Still ran the 4X4 from the circle to his driveway a few times to open a little path for him. :nopity:
jlumba81 Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 20" wow seems like the snow is going everywhere else but alaska. It rained a couple days ago and snowed again but only 1" or so.

BobDrye Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Maz: I live on a private road about 1/4 mile from a state road. About 6 weeks ago I added 80 tons of road mill to my drive. I regraded the 1/4 mile private drive that is used by 2 other houses. Today the owner of one of the 2 other houses plowed his drive and 1/2 of the 1/4 mile drive with a 3/4 ton 4x4 with a plow, but not the 1/8 mile end that I live on. Am I mad at him, not really I just think that it was an oversight. We talk about 2 times a year and have never exchanged a harsh word.

gjslutz Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 About all of my neighbors have been great, the few others are nice. I don't shovel the drive way and don't have a snow blower, or 4WD. Two years ago I filled the bed of a F150 I had with snow and just made tracks to knock down the very deep snow. I have a very wide flat driveway about 300' long so I can just drive over it. In a few days to a week the snow just disappears. Ohio weather?
BobDrye Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 When I returned late last night that same neighbor had plowed the road and my drive.
