Yeah, daniel has got a driveway the size of my neighborhood block. :)  Or is he clearing snow for the whole neighborhood?
Nope, that's all driveway! Ends down past the boy in a cul de sac. I have 4 x 100' extension cords going down to the mailbox right now for some Christmas lights, but there is some slack. The snow was a breeze, it's the leaves that kill me.

Here is a video of the Toro 826 OXE in action on Monday Morning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xRs6xqAbsc It was only my second row with the blower, so I didn't really know what I was doing yet. Had it angled way down on account of the gusty winds, didn't want it all blowing behind me back into the driveway. -dan

Be nice to get her in the shots as she is much cuter than I am.  Should I say something about this? . . . . . . Sorry can't resist..... Considering the demographics of this forum. You are right.

Good Vid Daniel, thanks for posting it. I gave you a thumbs up on YouTube. The wind is why in my videos you will see me going through the hassle of blowing the snow with the wind instead of against it. 
You can easily crank up the chute height and blow it the other way, you have plenty of room from the look of it. But if you blow against the wind then it's good to have it set as low as possible but high enough to get the snow where it needs to be. So how do you like the quick chute?

Yep, for sure besides who wants to see a bunch of old fat guys blowing snow.
Even I'd rather see my wife blowing snow (uh wait, that didn't come out right)
