And I'm already going through Mopar withdrawl!  I get to tinker in the garage, but not get out on the road!  Lousy stupid snow and ice!
Contrary to the opinions of some, I am not dumber than I look.

Yep I keep saying I need to live somewhere warmer but all my family is in Michigan .  .  .   :bricks:
Drive it like you stole it . . . And they're CHASING you!

It is getting colder.  I put on a sweater this morning.  It dropped to 71 degrees!   :Thud:  :wave:

I hate the cold winters more every year but unfortunately moving south isn`t an option right now but hopefully if I am ever able to retire it will be somewhere warm.

Yup, I fired the Chally up and backed it in the driveway just to let her run, all salted up roads here in CT. So I went Skiing on Sunday to Magic Mountain in VT to passify myself. Just keep thinking about Carlisle.........

If I could go into hibernation after Thanksgiving, and not get woke up again until some time in March, I don't think I'd miss a thing.
It's been warmer than average this month, and they only put down some salt once so far.  I've been trying to spend time outside, and was spending some time in the garage tinkering on the car.
Therefore I'm not complaining much, yet!  Sometimes Decembers here are a complete nightmare.
I'm off work next week, but temps are supposed to plummet this weekend.  I guess I'll spend a lot of time in bed, and maybe the rest of the time I'll sit in front of a space heater!
Then in January I'll check off days on my calendar wishing for April to come. :crying:

I don't know how you guys do it. I haven't really driven mine because it's been chilly [40s] in the morning. :bricks:

Be calm, shortest day of the year is Thursday, then the days get longer! Spring is coming!! I get thru it by trying to prepare for spring now...clean, tune, wrench!! Now your time is not competing with lawn mowing or fertilizing the lawn. I usually run out of spring stuff to do about Presidents' Day, then spring is in sight...at least now you can work on stuff patiently and not feel bad your lack of wrenching is holding you off the road...2 cents

OK, that's it Sheldon, turn in your Canuck Card! My brother-in-law, who's a London, Ontario boy now in Campbell River, authoritatively tells me that BC IS God's country where they can go surfing and/or skiing the same day, so how can you get to where you hate sleds, even? Tch, tch!  :Stirring:
