My driveway.

I just spend an hour or two shoveling about 3 feet of snow. It was hard work. Very cold, wet, hard work.
I just looked out the window and I see that my work has been desecrated and you can't even tell I bothered to shovel at all.

These are the days I'm glad that we have a HOA that shovels our driveways and sidewalks.

I hear you...
I am hoping that shoveling the first 3 feet of snow will make the second round of shoveling snow easier. Or should I have waited until it stopped snowing?

3 feet? I had to shovel 24 feet out the other day, and 59 feet before that. I lost my dog in a 103 foot drift.
Sure you aren't mixing feet and inches up there doc?

I just like to exaggerate.

Our 2 car driveway basically has had a 1 car tunnel the entire year. Piles of snow and ice have melted and slid down over the course of the winter and narrowed the entrance of the driveway.
It's like a glacier. There is no breaking it up, it's just there. Sunday we hit 50 and had rain so it put a good dent in it - we know have a 1.5 car entrance. So we are getting there...

I wore shorts.

Shut up. Just for that, I hope Bruce Pearl explodes into a giant orange mess of goo when the Vols lose in the NCAA tournament.
I stood outside and swept off my car with my Volcom jacket unzipped and wearing Chuck Taylor's. My pants, shoes and socks were soaking wet, but I had to get soda.
