Looks like mother nature was a little heavy on the clearcoat.

JK.

Looks like home. Did you loose power? This is the first time during a snow/ice storm that I did NOT loose power. Granted my heat went out for a while at night on Friday, but that's another story.

 :wow:
Sure is pretty, and dangerous too. I remember when I lived in the mountains of northern VA (Staunton) we had a bad ice storm. Snow tires do no good on ice, you gotta have studs. I lived on a hilly street and ended up sliding my Cuda into my neighbor's front yard (no damage). We also lost power for about a week!! I hope you didn't have too much damage from heavy falling branches!! Nice to look at!! Good picture taking too!!

 :iagree: w/Chryco.  We got hit with around 2-3" of snow the past couple days and I'd much rather see the weather we had earlier this month. :grinyes:

Looks like the same kinda weather here in New England.... which is why I finally got my power back tonite after being without it for a day and a half.... and why I spent half my day clearing roads of downed trees as well. Many people in the area still don't have power, and the wind is supposed to be kicking up soon and dropping temps into single digits.... jeez, I hate winter... >:(

At least you're getting some scenery to go with the cold. All we're getting here in the desert is cold and overcast skies. It's pretty bleak looking around here right now. :walkaway:
