MariposaMaid said:wedwacker where does your 'cleared' snow go? Friends from little town in UP Mich say that if you don't have a second story on your house you don't see any sunfor the winter for all the piled up snow! Snow cleared from the streets has to be trucked to the park or the school athletic fields


LOL, it sounds like your friends might be from "up north," near Lake Superior -- I'm in the "south," near Lake Michigan (everything is relative!). We sometimes get a good bit of snow, but NOTHING like they do near Superior... fortunately. And we use a snowblower rather than plowing, so everything gets blown away from the house.

The winter of 2013-2014 was the biggest snowfall here that we had in a long time - L. Superior also froze completely over that year, which is VERY unusual!
