I just don't snow about some people.

Keep in mind he is significantly bigger than this now.
I have a very active and easily bored Siberian Husky German Shepard mix. If you don't give him enough attention and exercise he tends to get destructive out of boredom. Not very good when he is contained in say...my garage for a period of time like over night or on long rainy days. Anyway I took the energetic not so little knucklehead out for a run/walk around my block and was once again intrigued at the actions of some people as they clean their driveways and side walks in between the snowstorms here in the mid-west.
First let me say I am an Infantry Marine and therefore believe in the adage "work smarter not harder" when it comes to a lot of things. So you can imagine my continued puzzlement when I see, not just one occasion either, people shoveling or blowing the snow into a street that has not been plowed yet. Ya, I have really tried to grasp the concept behind this activity but I am coming up blank. So if any one out there has a good explanation for this one please comment.
Oh, by the way it was a quick mile and half around the bock today. Not a bad run either with just enough workout in the patches of unshoveled sidewalks through out the trip. He must of had a pretty good work out too cause he didn't want to do much when we got back home. All I can say is I'm thankful for anti-pull harnesses or he would pull me onto the ground from a standstill.
