Hahahah, Last year I drove mine in 6" and it got around pretty good. I hope I don't have to drive it in any more snow though, they use salt around here.

[Smokin Joe]

Had a buddy years ago with a caddy trailer just like that. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[36couper]

Now THIS is snow!

[Smokin Joe]

When I went to the 50th Roadster show, the top of Donner Summit looked just like that. Just the tips of the taller signs sticking out. I have a friend who has a cabin on the Henry's fork about 65 miles from here. Lots of times in the winter they have to get into the cabin by way of the 2nd floor deck. 10 feet of snow is pretty common there.

[29SX276]

Right now it's -32 C and with the windchill,it's -51 F. It's going to get colder still tonite!! I'll trade you my cold weather for yours anyday! Enjoy what ya got! Regards from Saskatchewan.

[NortonG]

I've shoveled my drive way two times today! Enough already.

[Tim]

we got 16 inchs in the last day and the city still hastn plowed any of it, someof the main streets still have like 3 feetof snow on them :P

[chromedRAT]

think you hate it? i am a substitute teacher. i get paid exactly NOTHING if school is cancelled. and as hilly and challenging as the terrain is, just a little snow closes school. crap. ONLY good things are a) dirt-tracking EVERY corner in my grand am with the beloved E brake, and b) all the time in the world to work on my car...

[Donzie]

I just shot this thru my patio door.

[Bugman]

I don't even mind the salt really. I still drive my old car around. What's it gonna do? Rust? It's so rusty already that the salt doesn't affect it anymore. Besides, it need to be fixed anyway. If I don''t have to fix my car, I get bored http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[CherryBlossom]

I just mowed my lawn for the second time in a week.
I think I got a sun burn on my legs and arms because I've been in Tshirt and shorts all day...

[Smokin Joe]

Gonna name my next project "Stay Puff". It looked like that garbage can when I dug it out and brought it home.

Who Ya Gonna Call...

[Rocky]

We got 13 inches last night....was 9 below this morning..BRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[Thirdyfivepickup]

Took me 1hr 35 min to get home tonight. I-65 was solid ice. Got to see a UPS truck that lost it and wrecked into a concrete support on an underpass. Spent more time sideways than I would like to (unless I were on the dirt)

Can't wait for the humidity again!

Ray, you're so close. On the left is a sacred shrine to the snow Gods built entirely out of white Legos and on the right is a 13" high bundt cake my wife baked for tonights dessert. And yes, it is covered in coconut. Yum, yum!

[lefturn]

9:16 p.m and -39 degress below. welcome to winter. I was i short sleves last week in pomona. I wana go backsoon.

[fab32]

Donzie, I've been shoveling that coconut all day. Driveway two times and the 180' path to the shop three times. I'm giving up for tonight and if it's like this tomorrow I'm not getting out of bed. I keep telling myself it's only another month and a half and it will start to warm up.

[mr57]

PUSSIES!!! YOU ARE ALL PUSSIES!!!! I just finished towing the world's stupidest driver out of 2 1/2 feet of snow with -41 AND a 15 mph north wind. Try rolling around in a snowbank with a wind chill of over -50!!!!

You'll notice I didn't say anything about gender or cell phones when I could/should have. My own little rant for tonight. Thanks for listening

[phat rat]

Trinary, probably no one else here knows where Big Bay is let alone been there. Would imagine Triple A and 510 are closed now.

[Mike Landwehr]

On a sobering note -0 Just got back from driving the wife into work , fatal accident just outside of town,one medivac'd out, 2 by ambulance (had to be cut out) one still in car , frozen and dead as a rock, -35 below ,blowing snow, frosted windscreen ,blind intersection , black ice (frozen car exaust),stupidity (NOT driving per conditions-speeding,frost)were all factors ,
No names yet Ray but it was a black Toyota 4x4 PU and a 000's silver midsize 2dr sedan.
BE CAREFUL OUT THERE <font color="red"> </font>

Oh I'm far away from there now, back in the desert quail hunting where I belong. Don't know where Triple A is, but I drove down 510 and snow shoed into camp over the weekend. Shoed out and had a fine meal at the Lumberjack before I left. Was a nice vacation seeing some winter and my good friend Sven.

JAC

[phat rat]

Triple A is a right turn off 510 acouple of mi north of the Yellowdog it heads over to Skanee. Did you know that that the book Anatomy Of A Murder was based on a murder that happened there in Big Bay? In fact things started at the bar and progressed to the campground just down from there.

[long island vic]

i was in a plow from 7am tues till 630 wed nite wt 2 hours rest i hate snow it gives me a square ass from the seat

[Nads]

I hear you guys, man it's cold, 32 this morning. There's frost on my hubcaps. I guess I'll have to wear a hat.

[34 GAZ]

YEAH SURE, and this afternoon you,ll probably have sunburnt kneecaps, lucky dog. Here in The Lowlands were snowed in as well. Will someone please post a photo of a BBQ to warm us up.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

[wingnutz]
