I have a new love. It's great to be out with my kids removing the snow ... too bad there isn't any in my area right now. I came from the west coast and there was never any snow. I have a new love.

It is such a great feeling to play in the snow and go in for some hot chocolate. Even more fun when you can get some money out of it, ha. @Katy Wow, you must have had tons of snow so you are used to shoveling as well.

There are many memories of shoveling with dad and my brother, then going in for hot chocolate! I think we may have even gotten paid a few times... And really, who doesn't love to go out and play in the snow every so often! Growing up in Minnesota…you can only imagine the amount of snow we get each year.

Everyone on my parents block has professional landscapers as well. I also know usually when a whole block signs up, they usually get better rates, plus they can tend the lawn better than just mowing. I just think more people now-a-days have professionals opposed to some kid, I honestly don't think it has anything to do with labor laws. @Kevin But I wouldn’t assume the reason for that is because of labor laws.

Where I live, many people have professional landscapers, but I'm not aware of any who hire the neighborhood kid to do the work, and there are many kids around here. When I was a kid, we all did that kind of work!
