I think I'm going to need to take a break from the forum for a bit. This is what I woke up to this morning, and we are supposed to get another 6 inches by tomorrow. We are still a few weeks out in Northern Michigan.

Man this is the worst april Ive seen (buffalo ny) but at least we don't have snow on the ground like that... oh crap, I shouldn't have said that...

I'm about dying waiting for my WGG GS (being built 4/23), the weather better cooperate soon. But man I love that blue color, I'm kind of glad they discontinued it or I wouldn't have been able to choose between that or WGG.

The first drive of the year is always a fun time. Beautiful car you have there. Looking forward to getting mine out soon.

Usually we are driving by now. This has been a very strange winter. We saw grass in Jan, Feb, March, and now have gotten almost 2 feet of snow so far in April. We had grass and most of the snow was gone yesterday but are getting a huge storm this weekend.

Fall is great here, with good driving till late October usually.

Days like today I'm reminded why I spent so much money on my snowblower. Hopefully the car will be out in about 2 weeks looking at the long term forecast.

That's really bad when you need markers to find the walk to the garage in the snow, especially that tall. Reminds me of the markers on some roads in mountainous states for graders to follow.

It's cloudy, overcast and 40 degrees here in Kansas City. I'm glad you're able to get your C7 out up there in Chicago!
