HammerTime Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I was about for about 2 hours today trying to get my car out of the snow. I got it out butt needed some help from the neighbor with a plow on his Quad. So it got me thinking. How long have you shoveled the past few days.

Dlbdonn Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Maybe about 2 hours total over both days . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eta Rho Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I've spent probably 3 or 4 hours shoveling over the past two days. Dug my car out this morning which took about a half hour then went to my grandmother's house and did her sidewalks and driveway and did the same at my dad's house.

PepRock01 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 2 hours today to get my car out. Luckily I don't need to do much work on deicing it because I had the whole thing cleaned off yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunner11 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 2 hours is about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Under the Lights Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 0 hours shoveling, I paid the neighborhood kids 25 bucks to do the driveway. I did spend about an hour each day cleaning off the family's cars and putting salt down. That ice was murder to get off the top of the family SUV. I forsee some flying sheets of ice on the expressway tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigblueinsanity Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Me and my dad did our drive way, helped the people next door and then did the older ladys house beside us today. Took around 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockPride Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I shoveled yesterday for about 1.5 hours, and the same today, with some nice salt coverage....this morning was the worst, I had to dig the solid ice out of the bottom of my driveway from the plow.

GaViking Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 We have very long drive way. If you count yesterday and today, probably 4 hours with four people digging/shoveling us out. By the time we did clear the driveway again this morning, it started snowing once more. If you had a chance to see the Kyle's Lane exit and the trucks stuck on I-75 about 11:00am you will understand.

That was really nice of you and your Dad. I'm sure your neighbor's appreciated it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also went to my Mom's yesterday and shoveled her walk/driveway. I know it needs it again, but I can only do so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Not much snow in Garrard County; used a broom to sweep the driveway - took about 10 minutes. As for ice, different story. I have 12 trees (most 20-50 years old) on my 1/2 acre lot. All have received damage from the ice. I counted 25 branches that have fallen, many of which were between 15-25 feet long.

bigblueinsanity Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 That was really nice of you and your Dad. I'm sure your neighbor's appreciated it. She did and wanted to pay us, but we said no. She said she would do something for us sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHS BIG DADDY Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Spent quite a bit today. I shoveled and put salt down in our yard and sidewalk yesterday although that didnt take to long. Cleaned my car off and tried to dig it out today but that bad boy wouldnt move an inch. Tires just kept spinning on ice. Later helped my mom clean her car off and then was able to get her car out with the help of a few neighbors pushing it. All in all got a nice workout today.

nkuclubbaseball19 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 With 4 cars in my driveway we can't really shovel anything. Kinda have to wait for it to melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
