UPDATE: Best Places For Snow Blower Tune Up In Mid Michigan
Today we are supposed to get some light snowfall. It seems pretty early in the season for snow, but it is Michigan.
While my wife and I continue to house hunt, I will be living vicariously through you. I love homeownership because of the maintenance that comes with owning a home. I love to do spring cleanup, mow, trim, fall cleanup and of course, snow blowing.
When I lived in the city of Lansing I used to get up as early as possible when we had snow for two reasons. 1. I needed to get my driveway and sidewalks done. 2. I wanted to beat my neighbor, Gene, to the punch so I could do the sidewalks in my neighborhood.
There's something about snow blowing that I love. Snow blowing is the kind of work that you can see the immediate results of your effort. It's fun to power thru 12 inches of snow, shooting it in the air 10-15 feet into a pile that will most likely be played on by the kids.
I also enjoy helping my neighbors. I had several, elderly folks that lived on my block. Most often times they would wake up to a clean sidewalk and driveway and not know who did it. It feels good to do good things.
I'm a little behind in writing this, however, now is the time to get your snow blower tuned up for winter. I took mine in every year to get it tuned up and ready for the impending doom of winter. Better to get it tuned up now instead of mid winter when all the shops will be slammed.

Thank you, C&K! I’d give y’all a 6 if I could. Thank you, Kathy and all the folks who finally got my little 25 year old lawn tractor mowing like a new one. After it was delivered to me the first time, the deck failed. I personally visited C&K, way out in the country, and chatted with Kathy, the friendly owner, who said she’d have their driver pick it up. They replaced a broken belt at no charge, and delivered Toro to me again (thanks Duane!)
