So, I got it out in front of everyone!

I bought a large snow blower about 8 years ago and in our new home we haven't had enough snow to use it until yesterday. This thing is loud, real loud. It is smelly too, it can throw snow up to 25 feet.
I did seven houses on my street as we have some old folks and some woman that have a hard time shoveling.
Do you shovel or blow?

We shovel our snow, partially because our snow blower is a baby that doesn't do much. If we wait until the second day, or so, our city does the driveways of senior citizens with their snow plow tractors. We usually start and don't finish and the city finishes for us.

Seattle uses sand on the streets and my building maintenance uses the blue crystals around walkways and driveways. Looks radioactive to me.

I had a big snowblower in Anchorage. Sold it when I left. Haven't needed one since. Hired a guy with a truck when I lived on Candlewood Lake near Danbury in 2016. Steep hillside. Well worth it.

Neither. I think we've only had one snow day so far this winter. There was only about half an inch. The snow then turned rain and was gone by the end of the day.

I have someone to plow my driveway for me

I use an "electric snow shovel" made by Hart. It advertises it will work in up to 12 inches of snow. For the most part that is true. It just throws the snow in front of the direction you are going. But it will throw it across my 2-car wide driveway. Battery operated (uses my edge trimmer battery). If there is too much snow to use this on my driveway, it is very easy to use it on my porch which is about 20 feet long. Can't do that will a regular snow blower.
