That's what I do. If it gets too deep I have to shovel around the mailbox though or else the only thing the mailman will deliver is a note telling me they won't deliver.

This is the first time that I paid for snow plow service for the season, what a nice treat to get up to a plowed driveway

Oh and we still have power
Sorry to hear about those that don't
