As a year end reminder to be safe out there, here's an educational video on how to drive a 914 in the snow.

It rained here. We were in shorts and tee shirts. The news was on "Stormwatch" with their "storm tracker" RADAR. Every day, I wake up and realize Gavin Newsome is our Governor and wonder why I stay here.... Snow might be a better trade off...

Here it made it to 70 yesterday. Today it was in the 50s. Tomorrow there is supposed to be rain and a high of 47.
We do occasionally get snow. Usually it comes overnight and melts by noon. I took Igor out for a drive on Sunday. That much HP, a stiff racing clutch, and wet roads don't mix well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Gotta love living in the South. Beats the 5' of snow I had on Thanksgiving weekend when I was 12 and living in Ohio. Took me two days to shovel out the driveway. |

We're supposed to get 8 inches this weekend, spent the day today prepping the lot for snow blowing. It's gonna be looking like this soon.

I remember driving home on Thanksgiving night 1978 from my uncles house. Had about 6" of snow on the ground. The next day I looked at the back of my car and my 1970 rear valance was gone. Never did find it.
