> ...how much time was spent shoveling snow every year... Assuming you had a source of heat, could you grade where you would normally have to shovel snow for it to melt into cisterns, then run the heat through pipes under those paths/areas? > ...go take as advanced a first aid course as you can afford... Stock an appropriate IFAK (military-grade ones are not necessarily what you want [1]) on your person, then appropriately more comprehensive and larger kits in your vehicles and house. And stock vehicle and house consumables and parts that commonly break down; if you think the supply chain is bad now, wait 'til you experience it at the end of a long-ass last-mile segment. Be prepared to repair and fix everything on your own, as much as possible. This is why many working farms and ranches run extensive workshops.
