Are those earthquake cracks in your street?

Could be! We have mini-quakes here all the time.

But probably not. No quake we've experienced since we moved here has been at the severity level to cause any structural damage ( not like the movie San Andreas).

Btw, we experienced quakes strong enough to wake me up and shake the whole house in the middle of the night in Georgia and Indiana.

I always enjoy these threads where we can see where people live. By the way, I've lived in Michigan. I've done my winter time.

So far I really love it...from the F55, power top, and seat heaters to the 412hp. Handles and rides like a dream!

First show of the season in central ND. Usually we have had a lot of snow by now, we have had beautiful weather up to now so I guess we have to pay for it now.

Seats are nice...but I was comfortable in the C5 seats also. The heated seats are really nice on a cool top down evening.The keyless stuff takes some getting used to but I like it so far. I haven't tried it on the ramps yet but the car doesn't scrape in the places my C5 did so pretty sure they won't be a problem. I am not going to lower it more than it is right now...Snowed here last night but was gone when I got home from work...but more on the way!
