More snow

We too are getting our first snow; set out to visit my mother this morning but it was too slippery.

I had my truck out yesterday for what might be the last ride this year. Now to settle in for the winter; may re-do my speedo this winter.

Only frost so far here, but may get snow in the next couple of days. Luckily I think I have all my painting done, short of minor rattle can jobs on small parts.

I feel for you, my job is 50 miles from here where it gets pretty cold. However here at home it is 71 degrees outside so I have a friend coming over with his 64 Chevelle. I'm taking Orreo my 56 Fairlane and we are going for a lunch ride somewhere.

I still own a snow shovel, haven't used it in seven years

No snow here. Not even freezing yet. Winters have been mild for some time.

May have something to with all the Government testing sites up in the
interior.
Now the seals/lions and Polar Bears have some kind of sickness that
is making there hide fall off. It ain't natural so it must be man made
ya think?

Ya all know there is a weather station up here that allows them to make
storms and other nasty weather. Right?
