Just finished shoveling again...

Didn't measure it, sorry.

Its hard to remember that just a little over 2 weeks ago we were looking at bare ground.

I'm having trouble figuring out where to put the stuff already.

So, apparently, is the township, which seems to have a predilection for depositing it in people's already-shoveled driveways.
