That really sucks, especially if you woke up this morning and were really looking forward to stretch its legs a bit...

Glad I don't have to worry over that down here.

Jim,

My wife's heading up your way this weekend (not in my E55) so hopefully the roads will be plowed. She's driving tomorrow. They're saying it's supposed to snow here in Vegas tomorrow AM as well. That would be twice this year. Unheard of! That's one of the reasons we were so glad to move back to Vegas from SLC after college-no snow!
