If you're happy with your wimpy little electric snow blower, that's fine with me but it means that you don't get much real snow.

If more than 6-8 inches are on the ground, I use the electric Toro somewhat like a shovel... skimming off the top 4 or 5 inches of snow and then put it on the ground to finish the job. In the winter we seem to avoid a lot of snow here in the city due to the Atlantic Ocean's effect. Downside... not the best place to own a snowmobile... unless you trailer it a couple hundred miles to Cape Breton or next door to New Brunswick. I don't shovel snow, period. If the snow is too deep for our 4Runner in 4WD I call a landscape guy I know and get on his schedule for a plow. We don't have sidewalks adjacent to the street in front of our houses here, just sidewalks from the driveway to the front door. Mail is delivered at a central set of boxes at the traffic circle down the lane. The reality is, after a heavy snow, until our streets around here are plowed, no one without a big-tired 4WD vehicle and tire chains is going anywhere. It's different in more urban areas, where I believe you are required to clear the sidewalk adjacent to the street in front of your house and your walkway so the mailman can get to your door. In other words, you are a lazy piece of crap. |

Sounds like a perfect place for the FlatulentOne. He can 'freshen the air' and not bother a person or creature for miles. Indeed. There are some really pretty places in Florida, no shortage of them, really, but Central Florida, with few exceptions, isn't on the list. The topography is boringly flat, the flora is scrawny and typically pine, the soil is sandy, and as you head towards the state's lower latitudes, the heat builds up quickly, especially inland. If it weren't for Disney, Orlando would be a one-horse town. We went to Disneyworld the first summer it was open (1972, I think) and while it was a terrific destination, Orlando was nowheresville. Even the airport back then was a joke. |
