So the past few mornings have been a big noisy around here. The village has been out and about trimming trees (something about them making trees along right of ways un-climbable… at least the trees that survived the October 2006 storm). The sounds of chainsaws while annoying are tolerable. Now for the mind boggling part…
We’ve had a little bit of snow the past few mornings. I’m talking about an inch… maybe two inches. Now it hasn’t been a wet heavy snow, but the type that can be shoveled in 10 minutes. The neighborhood I live in does not have out of control driveways (like in suburban subdivision hells). But yet, at least one neighbor has insisted on dragging out his snowblower. For an inch of snow. In the time it takes him to get it out of the garage, get it started and cleaned the driveway he could have shoveled it. I don’t understand it at all. Plus with the price of gas these days… (and it keeps going up and up… gotta love NY taxes). Heck it’s not even enough show for the village to plow the streets (and they love to plow).
