SNOW !!!!!!

I like watching the snow fall, I like watching the kids have fun on school closing days sledding and making snowmen, I like also being off and thinking how the world shuts down and all is quiet, even if just for a day or 2,

BUT...I wish the snow would GO AWAY so I can Drive My SL!!! 12" last week, another 2-3" today.

FL's roads are awesome - I'd love to run my 65 on its highways 24/7/365! Instead I trickle-charge and cover her for several months a year. I like to convince myself I appreciate the driving more with fewer months available.
I hit a pothole on DC's infamous Beltway several months back - unf'n believable.
I thought I'd bent a rim and lost my underside.
Yeah, jbenz99 you got some nice roads, warm beaches, and beautiful women! And, I'm snow shoveling snow for what reason?

Alas... not so easy for us Canadians to move to Florida Well, not for those of us who aren't retired..

I'll probably see snow until late March at this rate
