yea i had the fun of shoveling roofs today too, shoveled the scalehouse at work, and then came home and did the barn, a steep metal roof, but not enough to slide the snow, altho i slid pretty well on it a few times! had to push from the peak as my dad pulled the rest with a roof rake from the ground, then shoveled the less steep addition on the front of the barn. im beat and ready for spring! but atleast i did get my 400 ft of vac line hung up overhead from the shop where the vac pump is to a utility pole they a couple trees, that way its up outa the way year round, no more rolling and unrolling it across the ground every year and every time i had to drive out to the back field during the season
