Andrew,
all cleaned up... after 16 inches...

- Please try to be more descriptive when using the word inches in a sentence. This one sounds funny as a title.
- You are scary. I lived in Chicago most of my life, and have never seen sidewalks or driveway this clean. Did you use a ruler?

they say have the battle is admitting it... i can do that...
the rest may require medication... i haven't gone there yet.
i'm just glad my wife accepts me after 12 years... she does respect my illness... and drives around any puddles when her car is clean... closes the car with the door handle instead of leaving finger prints on the finish... watches out for curbs... etc... she so good!

SFSince So. Cal. is really a desert it can get chilly during the winter months. There have been times when the car thermometer has displayed temps in the mid thirties in the morning.
Re: Snow
Andrew, that is the cleanest driveway I have ever seen. It looks like you went out there with a whisk broom & a dustpan. In all my snow-living life I cannot recall any space of concrete that looks that spiffy.
I am impressed! You win, hands down, the snow-shoveling, blowing, removing gold medal.

Re: Snow
You guys are" light weights". My driveway is 224' long, approx. 3,300 sq.ft. and we got at least 16" or more, and it looks as clean as Andrews. But I do it with a plastic snow shovel. (sorry, no photos) Oh yeah I almost forgot, our house sits on a hill about 20' higher than the street level, so it's up hill all the way.
But if ya have "Google Earth" you can see what it looks like in the summer.
2781 Waterloo Rd. Mogadore, Ohio 44260
Our driveway is the the first one East of Shroeder Rd. on the North side of the street.

Re: Snow
Andrew - it is amazing that you can get your backyard cleaner than anyones front yard that I know! We dont usually get too much snow here in the Vancouver area but we had a white Christmas this year that stuck around for a month. Usually just lots of rain but except for yesterday it's been dry for the last week and the top's been down - biggest problem is the 45 minutes it takes to get the top up at night - have to go for a quick trip around the block first. I just got my car in November and it is the best thing to make a bad day good and a good day even better. Couldn't leave it in the garage all winter. Love the forum - read it before I bought the car and I couldn't believe the comments were so positive. Now I know why. Sure glad I don't live in the east this week, looks pretty scary - take it easy out there.

Re: Snow
OK FP... who does your landscaping ??
The place looks very clean.

All Crossfires welcome in the beautiful town of Crystal lake !!
