Default It snowed last night

We got about four inches of snow last night, that means no more vette untill next spring. I had a appt this morning for an oil change and I had to cancel, maybe next weekend.

Yeah, I saw some footage on the Weather Channel made from Newton, Mass. All sorts of wrecks! All the national newscasters make fun of us Southerners when we have snow, about driving and such, but looks like you guys have the same problems too, at least with the first storm.

BTW, it's about 55 here and I just washed the Vette. Getting ready now to put a coat of Z2 on it and let it cook while I watch some football. That was just to make you New Englanders envious of our fall and winter weather (but you don't wanna be here in July!).

I was just kidding, due to work I travel between FL and KY so I get to see some in the winter, and I agree it can be very beautiful but you all be careful.

I feel your pain. I'm in neighboring Townsend. Put mine away for good the last week in October. All I can do now is dream up ways to spend money on mods next Spring.

Thank-you. I am going to put mine away tomorrow, Sunday November 14, 2004.

Had it 2 years and not a scratch. Very happy.



I would love to live in a warm year round climate.

It gets really bad from December-March. Cold. We slrd and fish and ski, but it is still cold. And forget driving in it-I am happy to be alive.

I have been to Dallas and hooked up with a lady from Houston in St. Kitts.

Yup, woke up to about an inch here in Joisey. I started putting together the list of parts I will need to build my 427... A guy can dream, can't he?

Getting to be that time of year. So far it has only been cool here, so the car remains on the road.
