You can't count on Mother Nature to provide enough revenue-generating stuff to clear. Offspring might take up their snow shovels and walk.

What you want to be in this home of Virginia's highest mountain peak and perpetual corner of dubious freezing weather is the owner of a coin-operated car wash. The Brotherhood of Coin-Operated Car Wash Owners in fact has a contract with the Virginia Department of Transportation to supply a certain tonnage of road chemicals throughout the fall, winter and spring to keep the aesthetically exacting automobile owner grubbing under couch cushions for quarters for nine months a year. During the summer, well-disciplined Grayson County residents are able to use their garden hoses. The rest of us who failed to drain, neatly coil, and store the hose for the winter in the basement can actually sprinkle the lawn while we are attempting to spray the car . But we find little pressure in the trickle from the nozzle.
