4WD, snow on the road, HORNS! What's not to enjoy! That is the reason why I filled with gas earlier this week, checked the oil, covered the windshield and left it on the driveway pointed to the street. I'm positive my wife can find several places she just has to go to in the snow. To bad she will have to ride in the 40 even though she dislikes it so much.

As an aside, I am on stand-by today. My cousin has breast cancer which has spread to her pelvis and she is scheduled for another round of chemotherapy today. If the center is open and her ride flakes out I will take her. I hate cancer; cancer killed my mother-in-law, my dads twin brother, it almost killed my daughter, my wife and now my son has had a scare.

Thanks for the kind words about the hard top. I love the look, the extra warmth inside on cold days and being able to lock it. Sadly, once I totaled all the bills for the hard top, I could have bought a Trollhole soft top and bows much cheaper. But that will be a project once the weather warms up.

Wish I was playing in the snow..... Will be clear and sunny here..... maybe I should head north.

Have fun guys
 
No bread or milk left in the grocery stores. (Bread and milk sandwiches) Children who can't get to school are out in force playing in the snow. Even saw some quad riders playing in the street.
 
We have a decent amount already here in west Durham.

It's sunny and 70s in San Diego.....
We'll be close to that in a couple days but it's good that the city completely shut down anyway and will take 2-3 days to resume normal services. :rolleyes: I felt like the biggest idiot yesterday for not loading up the Harris Teeter shopping cart with perishables like everyone else.

I was hoping you all would get to keep all of it....no such luck.
 
The gf is stuck in Tampa, her flight got delayed last night due to mechanical issues and the rebooked her for today.

Hopefully her plane makes it in, so I can take the 100 series out to RDU to pick her up / play in the snow.

Snow acculumation is at about 3" on the deck (took a few measurements with the tape measure) out here in SW Durham at noonish.

I'm sitting at work right now. Getting ready to leave and get on the roads. Should be fun!

Taking the backroads home in the 80 was fun, defiantly a little slippery thought:D
 

Holy Cow!!! thats a first in a while. A pic without Browndog running around somewhere!

Weve got at least 6 inches here, and its still coming down. Was hard enough I had to go brush off my Directv dish so i could watch the weather channel guy standing on the side of Wake Forest Roadin Raleigh attempting to try to get hit. Someone needs to go drive by him with a cruiser, preferably with train horns ;)
 
We had 2 transformer pop here in SW Durham, I think some tree branches must have fell. Luckily still have power.

We have about 4.25"-4.5" as of 1:45 pm today.
 
I had to get milk and bread but forgot.
