So what do you think.
It snowed a few days ago. I was out of town. The driveway is full of snow. it is getting warmer this weekend so......
....should I break out the snow blower (probably not enough snow for that) shovel or let it melt?

That was my vote to "Let it melt" At my age my thinking is "God put it there, He will Remove it'
Unless of course you feel energetic... then by all means grab that shovel and have a ball.. & a sore back tomorrow

Edgar,
I didn't shovel my driveway and it all has pretty much melted away already.
If not it will all be gone by Sunday when it's supposed to be 50*F

Let it Melt and then move to SC - we've had snow this winter, it totaled a "tenth of an inch". The locals were out making snowballs and snowmen in it - I stayed inside and dreamed about RACIN SOON!

I'm letting the snow here melt. I've been lazy for the past few days, and hey... NASCAR and NHRA are back in business this weekend. Weather's been dreadful out west, but Daytona's looking good. ARCA race today, Bud Shootout tonight, and Daytona 500 qualifying tomorrow with a crazy entry list... wait, why am I awake right now?

Come on you know jpee would never do it himself.....he probably has a hired gun to read and post for him on the forum LOL
The good news is it is starting to melt nicely. I am thinking of just shoveling a few lines in it so the water has a place to go. Home, maybe the tire tracks will serve that purpose. The wife went to visit one of my daughter's so I have nothing to do but watch the snow melt (oh and I should do our taxes too
)

The President said it ok not to pay taxes. When you get caught say you forgot and it was a honest mistake.

Since you've been lounging around all day, did you happen to notice that your car is in April's Vette magazine?
