Finally, the cold has ended in earnest! The driveway is starting to melt. Ever since I was a kid, it’s been my job to make drainages for snow melt in the spring – dig channels, make pathways to drain the snowmelt puddles away. There is some utility in doing this – draining the puddles prevents them from freezing in a skating rink at night and I’m sure it helps usher in spring a little faster.
