I built one much like that but we had rain after it snowed and it was to crusty to use it . They do work great if you can get to the snow before it's to late . I used it a lot last winter though . I do have a roof rake also .

Seeing that makes me appreciate Texas weather. As much as we like to complain about it Texas weather is so much better than snow like that. I can travel to snow country once every ten years and get enough of that. Y'all enjoy it!

My dad had a group of friends, all senior citizens, who met every Saturday for an extended lunch.

But there was one firm rule. If you mentioned anything medical, ailments or pain or even a head cold, you were out of the group.

There were no exceptions.

There are steps that I used run up as a kid... skipping several at a time like it was nothing.

Now I no longer run up the stairs skipping some as I go.

Sounds like a group of my retired friends... with one exception.

If you mentioned aches and pains you just bought everyone's lunch... boy did that have the desired effect.

Mid-70s now. I find I can do most of what I did when I was younger, just not as fast or as long. Some of it springs from aging muscles I guess. And some from distraction and a keener awareness of time. Was removing a carb from an old Cub Cadet lawn tractor I use for mowing and a half-hour job (you have to take the valve cover off to remove the carb) turned into two hours on two days... I kept remembering other things I had to do and stopped to do them. My memory seems OK, but rather random. So I use digital devices more and allow lots of time for any task... One of the benefits of being retired.

Oh, wait... that's who can stay married the longest. :eek:
