But if ya have "Google Earth" you can see what it looks like in the summer.

Mike says he did a better job, but I haven't seen any pictures. Talk is cheap.

The driveway is up hill all the way, that's not the way I shovel it.
FP, too late for photos, the sun melted the light dusting of snow that was left on the concrete after shoveling. You're right talk is cheap, but why would I lie? I take keeping my driveway clean in the winter very seriously, I have to. If it has any snow on it I can't go up it (since I don't believe in 4 wheel drive).
This has been a 24 year winter ritual for me. If I lived somewhere like Fla. or Calif. I'd probably go thru withdrawl. But I have to admit, becoming a "snow bird" is looking better to me everyday.
Sandman, since you're the man who's responsible for keeping a large portion of "Mid Ohio's" roads passable, I'd have to say "Jane" deservers a Medal. (or at least a new set of golf clubs.
