Snow storm - white christmas
You should all know how much I like winter by now
As if it's not enough that I can't use my vert, we are getting an overnight gift from mother nature ... 7 to 11 inches of snow

Stay safe and warm in all that snow and cold. So far, we are missing the snow here. Only have the really cold weather.

Lucky you! I love the snow. Can't drive the Vette in it but I love it anyway. My Avalanche is great in it.

Bummer, I know how you feel. Baron posted that he likes snow, maybe we can ship him some.

I would take the rain over the snow and I bet it doesn't get anywhere near as cold as it does here.

In anticipation of this storm, I drove my Corvette over to my parents house on Wednesday night and borrowed my mom's VW Golf. But even with front wheel drive, I still don't want to go to work today in this mess! It's a 25 mile drive to work, and it's our last day before our Christmas break so we're not busy anyhow. So this storm allows me to get an extra day of holidays, I don't have to work until January the 3rd! Nice!
I'll go pick up my Corvette tomorrow morning, since it's supposed to be dry weather for a while. It looks like we might get a couple of days next week where it hits over 50F here in Toronto too!

White Christmas
Here in Evansville, IN we got 19.3" yesterday. With low temps down to around 0, we will definitely have a white christmas. My Vette will stay snug in its car cover and battery tender. Merry Christmas to all!
