Good points.

I've done this for two storms now. The last storm took hours and hours to clear. If I add it up, maybe eight.. There is a part - a long, steep staircase in the property - that has to be shoveled by hand. So that's a few hours of sufficient exercise. Any more, is too much for my back and my taste.
