Our neighbor to the south is at the bottom of a steep driveway. We are at the top of the valley and they are below. Hubby has gone down and plowed them out more than a few times this winter as their snowblower just doesn’t cut it. They have a parking place up top near the road where they can leave a car. Plus hubby has to travel some for work and mom has 6 little ones. What state are you in? Nothing I like better than killing a fat groundhog, but I would never eat one, Ok I guess I should never say never. Hope your garlic made it, fall is definitely the best time to plant. There is never enough garlic.....
SW South Dakota, just inside the Black Hills. 24 miles from Wyoming; 30 or so from Nebraska.
