His property is covered in snow from last night's storm.
It's a big job snow-blowing over an acre of land, and today, Jim has some extra work to take care of.
"The neighbors sort of expect me to do it. It's not my job, but they expect me to do it."
This Good Samaritan has quite the machine to take care of all the snow.
"Well hey, it's got to be done someone's got to do it. God brought it. We take it."
Lynn Megivern is using a much more simple tool....a shovel.
"Strain on the back, strain on the nerves driving. "
It may not be an easy job, but the snow clean-up helps Megivern make money during the winter months.
"It holds us over through the winter. Gives a little extra job during the winter and puts a little extra money in the bank that's all."
Some use shovels, others use snow blowers, but "Squirrel" uses this four-wheeler to clean up snow, and has a lot of fun doing it."
"Well, you know, you don't have to bust your butt when you're doing it! It moves the snow right off the sidewalks nice." said "Squirrel Wiggins
It may not be the typical way to clean-up snow, but boy does it make the job fun, and Squirrel says it's fast and easy.
"Because it moves the snow right off the sidewalk. You don't have to break your back doing it. No chance of a heart attack here."
