. Plow Man

NPR's Neal Conan talks to Mike Doddson, Alexandria, Virginia as he plows a suburban side road. We find out plowing is hard when everything's closed, because cars are parked on the street and and you have to be careful not to bury them. And it's hard to find a place to put all the snow, which the city is dumping into Potomac River. Doddson says its kind of fun to operate big machinery, and the money's not bad.
