    Joe, your "hammering" is my hammering - just takes a little while longer to get to me. :cry:

    We started out last night with snow and it went to sleet at 9 am and now at noon it's freezing rain.

    Record snowfall amounts up here. Its like it snows everyday. We did get last weekend off from the snow but the clear skies made for -20 temps. Spent Sun morning ice fishing. Had 2 heaters going in the portable hut. OK till you have to pack up and head in. Waiting for some plus temps so I can fire up the Mav. Hasnt run since early Dec.

    Snowed

    I call it riding the storm out, our snow turned to rain and now back to snow. I recently added the blackout tail and scored a Maverick eblem. I'm waiting for it to dry up now so I can put a blow dryer on an extension cord and stick it on the back trunk. Hows the blackout look guys?

    Mavericks and Comets , what could be nicer ?
    To live in a zone , that needs no deicer ..
    Springs nearing fast .. when the snow is diminished ..
    Lets hope by then .. that our cars are all finished..

    Snowed in Good

    :( Hey jdm79 sorry to hear about your escort & the tree they are great little cars I had an 87 escort gt (it even had wing windows) and and a 94 lx both of them ran as good as my 83 Jeep CJ-5 in the snow. And they still ran great when I got rid of them at 150,000 miles each later.

    Last time I saw snow was over a year ago, and it was gone in a few hours. :p In Georgia, the amount of snow you see in that pic, is enough to cancel school and make everyone panic and go wipe out the grocery stores and gas stations, while driving like morons and ending up in ditches along the way. :biglaugh:
