 Snowy, windy, and cold here! Not much to do outside except shovel snow. I've spent more time on this computer the last couple of weeks than I have the last couple of years. 
Not quite ready for spring yet but a thaw would be nice.

Say what you will about Mexifornia, Commiefornia, Land of Fruits and Nuts (and other tired ol' jokes), but I just went on a cruise w/ the LX car club last Friday and going to a meet n greet tonite.

You guys in the "Heartland" and the East don't have any cruises going on, do you?  :icon_smile_big:

I have an easy way of getting them to stop giving you trouble. Just kill one every day, and all the others will be busy attending the funerals.

I like the winter break from it all. It kinda reminds you how fun it can be for a few months. I know if I lived in good weather year 'round, I would get bored pretty quick.

Once football ends for me I do get pretty impatient for warmer weather. However, hockey is back in the mix, so that should keep me busy until April.  ;)

I hate winter!!!
In three years (after I leave the Airforce), I'm hoping to spend at least PART of the year in Texas....or at the very least another warmer climate.
Maybe Dubai.
Wherever there is an oil company willing to pay me what I want.

The only consolation to this time of year is what Stuart says: saving up for the summer season.
And I've got to drive back out to Alberta in April to get my Charger out of a sea container!

I kept busy showeling snow off of our roof, how about you? Is there much snow on your roof? Its pretty heavy and rain soaked, I didn't want to take any chances.

Not so much here, but its getting worse. We dont have snow to contend with, but it seems to rain every other day. I cant get out and do any thing in the yard cause it is a big muddy mess, I cant get any thing started on the Charger just as soon as I do it starts raining again. Yea its starting to suck here. I'll be glad when spring gets here and things finally start to dry up abit.

Silver----Yea, we had plenty on the roof, but it's melting off so fast that the gutter downspouts sound like a hose.  Any more snow and I would have been shoveling.  Bob

I don't like the cold but it doesn't slow me down since the garage is heated. It seems less gets done in the summer since there is yardwork and other summer activities, plus it gets 100 in the garage then. It is easier to throw another log on the fire that pay a big AC bill.  :Twocents: And BB1 if you go to AZ go way down south. I went through flagstaff  and they had 3ft. of snow right before christmas and it was ZERO! Check out the pic.

I thought I'd have more "work on the cars" time once I moved down here to NC from NY. Problem is all this rain. The "nice" cars are in the garage, but no electicity out there (yet). I need to sell one to move the next project in. Oh hell, I need to sell a LOT of stuff!  :eek2:

...then when it's 95 in the Summer, we say "I'll wait until winter when it's not so damn hot".
