How bout that snow?

Well I braved it. I took the Porsche out in the snow. For the crappy tires that are on there now, it didnt do half bad (cept for the 7-11 parking lot where the turban heads decided to sit there and watch me get stuck cuse they were too cheap to have the lot plowed, and even refused to let me borrow their shovel )

Liberal use of the loud pedal gets the car pointed in the right direction and off we go . If it wasnt the light and fluffy style, it could have made for some interesting parking lot videos. That and my camera refused to cooperate in the cold.

Anyone else do anything today??

ughh,


Just finished shoveling. We got almost 2 feet up here in Huntington and it's not done yet.

Hope it stops soon, love to take the daughter sledding.

Stay warm.

Jets game should be fun to watch.

Oh yeah, nevermind.

Guess the Steelers'll have to do.

The restoration of the barn was completed Friday, so I was able to put the 911 away yesterday a.m. (note to self: 36 year old cars with Webers don't like being started in 5 degree weather), so it's happy.

The neighbor's kids just showed up at the door asking if we wanted to be shoveled out ( I love capitalism), so I'm happy.

It sure is pretty to look at, though.

Tucked the '44 away in the garage for the winter overhaul yesterday. just got in from shoveling the foot and a half of snow off the driveway.
And there is no better feeling than watching the town snowplow bury the drveway that you just uncovered 5 min before..

Had some yutz outside my window Sunday in an SUV trying to get himself unstuck. $20,000 worth of over-weight iron and shod with bald tires.. Go figure.
