OK, a winter snow storm has actually moved across the Midwest dropping 17 inches on North Dakota and parts of Minnesota. Winter is indeed on the way, and the next one of these might slide down a few hundred miles and bury us in the white stuff. If it does, we’ve found a great way to remove the snow from your driveway that almost beats using one of the top of the line Toro snow blowers we sell here at Crescent Avenue Gardens:

In Russia, they’re using old Mig17 fighter jet engines to clear the snow and ice off of runways.  Fast, but the cost of jet fuel alone might make this impractical for most of us, but who knows?  Maybe next year you’ll be able to buy a Toro Jet Engine snow blower at Crescent Avenue Gardens in Fort Wayne, IN.
