My wife has already gotten a couple of complaints from the neighbors to the south this morning....

I didn't have any intent on blowing it in there drives....I told my wife to tell them that the higher powers that be were actually involved and the complaints should be forwarded to them...

I normally don't have that problem because I do my neighbors drive ways when I am out on the tractor.

Agreed!



Just re cleared driveways from when my brother did it this morning before he left work work. 3 hours to clear the heavy slush (turned to rain for a while), used my dad's snow rake on the mud room and my mom's portable garage as well as some of the house (I stood on the porch) I'm soaked

Were you trying to catch snow flakes on your tongue while you snow raked?

You know they do sell handle extensions....

Hot is working in the laundry now, still working on the cold. I have a drop light pointing towards the wall behind the washer. Cold is on in the kitchen.

Stealth, Mountaineer just sent me an email. He suggested that you yank the cord out of the hair dryer, peel off about 6 inches of insulation and tie both ends around the frozen pipe. Then plug it in. he said it thawed it quickly, every time.
