Another day in Paradise....Winter style. The Vette wanted to go out and play, but I said no. My dog thinks he's at the beach....he loves the snow....

I grew up in the Chicago area and at times, I miss the snowy and quiet winter days. We also had some nice tree-filled land that offered similar picturesque views. Now I live in Florida and I can drive my Corvettes year round, however during high season with all the snowbirds in town, "driving" is hardly the term I use.
Any more pics of the seats you have in your C5? They look interesting.

MSG- We did just the opposite. We were in So Cal for 20 years, then moved to the high country of Arizona 28 years ago. But I don't mind the Winters except I can't get out much with the Corvette or motorcycle. Here are some shots of my seats. They are all cloth from Cypher. I don't like leather seats.

Looks like fun. I plan on retiring hopefully within 5 years and then move back into the snowy region. I kinda miss it sometimes. Not going to work in it though, did that for to many years.

Looks like the weather we had over the weekend (13+ inches of snow). Can't say I blame you for keeping the car in the garage.

Saw a dark blue C5 corvette going down I-96 in Brighton Michigan yesterday. Someone was playing!! Sunny and still no snow on the ground. Still some salt dust on side roads though.
