I don't enjoy shoveling snow, but I very much enjoy working outside in the summer time, especially splitting wood with an axe. To me, chopping wood is the best way to think over life's gifts and to put my demons to bed. Snow is a whole different story, though. Though no, I did not grow up on a farm.
Also, I tried snowblowing today without turning off the PTO. It turns out the belt actually doesn't rub at all. I think I moved the pulley and installed a smaller belt to fix that, though it had obviously slipped my mind...
