The Blizzard of 96 made this one look wimpy. We were snowed in for three days. This snow we got 6" but 40mi. away got two feet.

They ruined the road by me with salt! I was gonna take her out today, but the roads were white...

Mine was in the garage so she was nice and dry, but yeah, shoveled the whole driveway in hopes for a drive...

Oh well, I will wait. My Vette is my daily drive,r but the semester is over so I dont have to use her.

I really feel bad for you guys on the east coast. How do you guys keep up with that?

I can't relate to it if I'd like to see snow, I have to drive to Big Bear or Idyllwild. That is far enough for me.

Ebay has a perfect waterproof cover for our cars for $39.00.....I bought a bunch of them, perfect fit. no affiliation, just a good seller with a great cover: this one fits my 92 perfectly.

My parents house up in Oakhurst usually gets a couple inches of snow in the winter, but that's about it. Or I go up to Sierra Summit and do some snowboarding.
