Odd 911 out in the snow in Denver
Typical spring snow storm/blizzard today (>14" right now) here in the Denver area. The SC did not have a room in the inn last night as I had my '72 was out of hibernation and getting it prepped for the next weekend's PCA/RMR track day. Sometimes it sucks to have a galvanized body. Fortunately for Coloradoans, the frontal range area's snow usually is gone in a day or so.... Enjoy. YMMV

We're next door (Neighborhood) to you, you tech inspected my 993 last year for the July 10 DE. I sold the 993 and bought a 83 SC. Enjoy the snowy day at home, we are, watching the Masters.'
I saw your 72 is for sale, what will you be driving this year? the SC?

Last week I came home from our first autocross with a sun burn. Yesterday I took the RD for a spin with only a T-shirt on. A few minutes ago I shoveled 13 inches of wet, heavy snow
 Hey Bill.....you coming out to 2nd creek next weekend with the new car?

Man is this snow going to stop? Wet heavy stuff.
Jess --where would you put my SC if all available space in your garage is taken by your '69 & '72 911s? Craig-- my racecar 2.7S motor is in pieces in my garage. Grady posted the story about a week and half ago. Over detonated in Texas. Me and old blue (the '72) will be out at Second Creek next week for sure. Nah I am not going to sell it, that ad was listed at a weak moment. Howie, welcome to fold of SCs, they are wonderfully dependable 911s. My Weissach SC is my preferred daily driver except for today. Thank goodness for my Blizzak-equipped S6 on days like this. Going snowboarding tomorrow up at Copper to check out the bikini girls and all the new snow. Gotta love Colorado in the spring.

At a certain point the Landcruiser could be pushed out onto the driveway. See you next weekend. Jess |

That's a really cool picture, and of course snow by itself won't hurt a car one bit. It's just clean water in non-liquid form.

Gotta love that fresh powder for the powder hounds. |
