It took me close to an hour and a half, but I shoveled off all of the ice that was stuck to the deck. The fun part was for half of it I was shoveling in my t-shirt, jeans, and my bare feet then I broke the shovel so I have to put boots on and go and get another shovel so I could do the other half of the deck. It was about 72 degrees in the sun. That's what our thermometer was reading as I was shoveling. Sadly it's supposed to snow later this week. I love the snow, I just want to be able to relax outside like I was after I finished cleaning off the deck.
