Ishpeming, Michigan – February 8th, 2016 – Looking back at last week brings great pain to my aching back. Looking ahead to this week also brings great pain to my aching back. I enjoyed clearing the snow in my driveway… really, it didn’t bother me. BUT, afterwards, my back was in total agony! I think there was a total of 14″ of fresh, heavy snow in my driveway when all was said and done by the time Thursday came around.
I was still clearing the snow in my driveway even into Friday…
I’m still sticking by my snow scoop. Even after this last storm. I have persistence! I made the mistake of NOT pushing the snow further into my yard from the driveway with my snow scoop at the start of winter. The result? A pile of snow on both sides of my driveway that now stands over five feet tall. It’s getting more and more difficult to throw the snow over the pile. Maybe this is what’s causing my back pain?
Do you have this much snow in your yard after the storm last week?
