Yeah. It sux.
But I live in MinneSNOWta. I drove mine today. Will again tomorrow. Way too nice out to "put it away"!
I'll wait for them to start dumping salt on the roads. Then I'll park it in the garage.
Then I'll take it back out in 4 months.

Nice garage!

I put mine away almost 2 weeks ago -- just before we got hammered by heavy snow & tree debris.

Worst 4 letter word in the dictionary, the only redeeming quality the stuff has is that it eventually melts. My favorite vision of snow is in liquid form running down the gutter. Lucky me, Syracuse is generally considered the snowiest major city in the US, but the good thing is that we have the equipment to handle it, 2 feet overnight and tomorrow business as usual. Saturday and Sunday are forecast sunny and low 60's, so I'm thinking this may be the last chance driving the Vette until spring, so I guess the StaBil comes next, then a nice clean-up, plug in the CTek and cover it up. My winter toy's a Kubota GR2110 4WD diesel lawn tractor with a 48" snowblower, my neighbors like to watch it work.

No salt here yet either, but we both know it's only a matter of time. They've had minor snow both north and south of us but it's been pretty good here so far, in fact I plan on mowing my lawn at least once more before I take the mower deck off and put the blower head on. I'll have the Corvette all tucked away by Thanksgiving week though, I'm sure. Was just up in Rochester last week at MB of Rochester on West Henrietta Rd. to pick up my wife's new car we ordered in early August, so of course we had to make the stop at Eastview Mall on the way home, lol.

I love the snow but I don't have to deal with it unless I want to. Snow is rather rare where I live. It looks like you're all set for hibernation. BTW nice garage....clean and orderly!
