Even with a very helpful neighbor who used his Bobcat to dig out my mailbox and do 3 quarters of my driveway I spent 2 hours digging out my back pass to the oil tank, my front walkway, and the huge mountain that the town left me at the end of my driveway. I do have a snowblower but with the snow drifts it was about 4 feet high. Took all my strength to shove the snow blower through the snow.

Anytging that brings up your heart rate can be considered exercise ....

So id say absolutely!

You bet it is! Been shoveling on and off since last night. We got a bit over two feet then less and more depending on drifts.

We are south of boston. How about you?

be careful and safe my snow birds...

Definitely! I can walk for 45 minutes at a pace of 3.2 without breaking a sweat, but if I go out and shovel snow, I break a sweat easily

Southern NH. I keep my house at 60 so spent the day under my electric blanket on the couch.

Sadly I rarely get a day "off" so I spent it cooking (healthy)' reading and snuggling with my dogs while my husband and son shoveled . I am only 4'7" so the snow banks are over my head
