   Send more snow.

Here south of Boston we have some extra you could have.  In spite of
somewhat old AGM batteries which have lost a lot of their capacity, my
Electric Ox has been a real workhorse (work-ox?) at removing the snow.
The only problem is that now the snowbanks around our driveway have
reached about 7 feet, which is as high as the blower can raise the snow.
If any more snow is forecast, we will have to lower them, probably by
dumping the snow in the driveway and using the blower as a pusher to
take it somewhere else and blow it again there.

We installed 90 feet of snow fencing:

Now our driveway is not blocked by drifts several times a day when there
is a big blow after the storm.
