About Me
- Andy
- My name is Andrew but I usually go by Andy. I have two sons Robert and Ryan (Bavetta.com) (CrazyBuilders.com) and three grandchildren Scott, Lindsey and Jill. I spent most of my life in the Los Angeles area. I moved to Northern California (Truckee) after I retired in 1997 from Hughes Aircraft Co in El Segundo, CA. I enjoy outdoor activities the most. Lately my passions have been skiing in the winter and biking (road and mountain) during the summer. I also enjoy WW kayaking but have not boated much lately. I prefer the mountains and the beach to the flatlands. I like to be around people but I'm also OK hanging out alone. These days I work in the winter as a ski instructor at Northstar at Tahoe in Truckee CA. I love dogs and I am not too fond of cats. I have a HD DirecTV/TIVO setup and I use it mainly to watch news/political shows including The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and the Colbert Report with Stephan Colbert, Sacramento Kings basketball, USC football, World Cup FIS skiing and the cycling tour. I like to travel but prefer to combine it with some sort of outdoor activity like biking.

Hi Andy,
I am a flatlander with a house in tahoedonner. Unfortunately I put three decks on it totaling about 1000 sq feet :( Been shoveling them for ten years but now my heart in not as good.
Can you recommend a snowblower to buy for redwood decks. I need to motor it through the house to get to two one of the decks, and even up some outdoor stairs. Also who sells them locally ?
TY Jim Mills on Coperhagen Dr.
Hi Jim
Your a week late just sold my small (6HP) Honda deck Snow blower for $600 so I'm back to shoveling. I too had the drive through house problem which eventually proved not to be worth the effort so I left it on one deck and shoveled the other one. Then I ended up shoveling both decks so I sold the blower. Shoveling is rather easy if you keep up with the snow as it's falling which I can do since I live here. Anyway as you live down the hill your apt to come up with 2 or 3 feet of snow on your deck. To handle that you will need at least a 9 HP model. Buy it new at Truckee Rents or used on Craigs list Reno. If you have more questions email me at bavetta@pacbell.net
