I had about 4" of the wet heavy stuff in the driveway when I got home last night. Snow blower made quick work of it though. This winter has been pretty easy so far. I agree with Harry, I could use some sunshine. I've been loading up on vitamin D, it helps, but is not as good as the real thing.

got about 3" of white stuff mixed with lots of rain. Snow blower got the major stuff off, still had to use the shovel to get down to pavement.

love having a snowblower! It doesn't save a TON of extra time given I still need to apply the shovel to get everything off the driveway
but I'm not 1/2 dead from exhaustion when I'm done.

Bugatti's new 2.4 million dollar supercar, very interesting and detailed read on all of the car's major systems.

About an inch and a half this morning or maybe it was 2. It wasn't too bad moving it to the curb. Roads were slick in the burbs but everywhere else they were clean. If I didn't have to work I'd probably go find an empty parking lot.

Mark & Mark - I've put off the snowblower too long. WTH, maybe I'll get through this winter and get one next time. If it's really bad I do have a plow guy on standby.

Its good to see some activity on here. Keep the posts coming

Be assured as soon as you get a snowblower, there will be no more snow that year. Happened to me last year, after I got it in December, it only snowed enough to need the snowblower twice the rest of the season.

The wife got it for me last year for our anniversary, this year I got a nice Husquvarna (sp?) backpack gas leaf blower!

woah! that car is a beast. I wonder if they are making any profit on that car with how intensive the engineering is.

Doubt many here consider driving their S2000 year round but if you do look around the next few days.

We are at 'peak salt'. Many mostly "white" cars coming
