We got a good foot and a half of snow here. The landlord gave me an old snow blower to use. I got about half of the driveway done, and the wheel fell off!
I had done a little of the neighbor's drive (we also have an alley we have to use to get to our driveway) and she had come out to shovel. She saw me walking with the wheel (i was gonna walk to the local hardware store to see if they could help me) and she told me to wait for her husband, that he would help me. I am NOT mechanically inclined. So he shows up, and within 20 minutes had the wheel back on for me.
I was SO thankful. The drifts were really bad here. There is no way i could have shoveled it by hand. Especially with my doc reminding me i have heart disease and shouldn't shovel.
So with the help of my neighbor, i got it all cleared.
