Why I hate using snowblowers

[dewline]

1. It guzzles gasoline and spits out climate-deranger gas vapours.
2. I'm forever terrified of messing up the machine via mixing up the steps of the ignition sequence.
3. There's too much to keep track of while it's running. (I know: welcome to the world of technophobes trying to cope with having to be computer-users.)
4. I've grown to actually like the exercise of using old-style shovels.

Take that for however little it's worth.

Are you saying you have a redundant snowblower you want to get rid of, cheap?

Nope. I'm just venting about it is all.

The snowblower isn't mine to dispose of, for one thing, and for another, sometimes it's useful in spite of my misgivings.

I shovel, as well. Nice workout, and I get the kids out there to build a squad of snowmen charged with watching over the perimeter of the castle grounds.
