Still not cleared out.
That said, here's a video of Commercial Street, North Sydney. The sideways were completely clear when I left work on Friday.

Plow went by, shoveled out a path to the street.
Yesterday went to the corner store. Going really shack wacky today as I know I can move about but cannot.
Have a few calls out for people to clear me out.
Debating walking to Breton Brewing as I ran out of beer (1hr walk to, 1hr walk back, plus whatever time is added due to conditions).

I wonder if some of you can just pour some gasoline on the street to light on fire in an attempt to melt down some of the accumulation.
Then use a temporary insanity "I wanted to see hell frozen over" type of defense when questioned about it.
If you do walk, can you occasionally walk on top of the accumulation from time to time? Then you can claim you walked over cars to grab beer during an insane snow dump. If anyone questions you, show them a pic on top of the snow with a car sticking out below... As long as you don't fall in and die like a tree well scenario.

Not gonna lie. I did a Google search to see if I took the gasoline from the barn for the generator and spread it over the driveway and lit it on fire, would that clear the snow?
Apparently not.
Apparently, the plow guy is going to be by tonight.
If not, I'm walking to Tim's, Sobeys and the brewery tomorrow.
I'm way behind on my podcasts due to the lack of driving haha.

Right now it would be easier and cheaper to get a hotel in Vegas this weekend than someone to remove snow in the Cape
