My wife and I stopped by the local Orange Apron to pick up a few things. While there, I thought to look at their snow blowers, since mine is not working well. They only had a few models on display, so we stepped out into the garden area to see if they had some more. They didn’t.
While we were out there, we saw a bunch of snow shovels for sale. Since our snow shovels are very old, and showing much wear, we decided to buy some new ones. After selecting a couple from the display, my wife noticed a stack of Snoboss snow shovels on a nearby shelf, about 5-6 feet off the ground.
I reached up to get one.
As I picked it up, I thought to myself “This is a heavy shovel” and gave it a heave.
I got drenched.
It was heavy because it was full of water. There was no roof over that area, and the recent rains had filled it with water. As I picked it up, the water cascaded out of the shovel and down the front of my jacket and pants.
I didn’t buy one of those.
