That blower would have come in handy to cut your pathways.... Just cut a path in my front yard to rake the snow off my roof.

Stone rubble foundation for most of the house with a concrete foundation for an addition added in the late 80's. Main house is 1860 and the foundation and the old sills are in good shape. I don't have water issues with those as the grading is good, they just leak air badly. It's the addition on the east side that's the water problem as the grade is basically flat from the house to the driveway. I wish they would have made that room a step up and gave me an extra foot of foundation.
There is a drain system in the driveway but getting water to it is an issue.
