    What are you talking about? We have lots of white sand here in Texas! It must have been really windy to blow up into those trees like that.:D

    (I haven't seen significant snowfall in years)

    Way up north in the ice and snow
    If you want to be cool I offer minus 30 C with a wind.
    N71 W124 The sun is at least a month away yet. At least you
    don't have to shovel the driveway.

    I'm sooooo jealous of every single picture with snow in it right now.

    It's been +5 C and constant overcast (really, really bleak) for months here until just a few days ago. Got -5 and mostly clear skies now, and forecast finally showing snowfall. Can't wait!
    Creativity's hard.

    Don't forget the mosquitos here in Florida! I also say I want to see snow, but maybe only for a day when i don't have to go anywhere and I can make snowmen all day. Driving in that and shoveling it, does not sound like fun, but it definitely makes for some great pictures!

    A lot of snow keeps all of you warm. It's lack of snow and gloomy darkness that i don't like.
    The more snow, the merrier! clap.gif I haven't seen snow in 15 years, i must be crazy.

    Well now that I know what I am missing......


    Yesterday my brother in law and I went for a spin in his new toy. I suspect it wouldn't play real nice on icy roads.

    .....just a hunch!!!


    Corvette Z6
    427 cubic inch
    505 Horsepower Stock
    He has added NOs and an aftermarket air intake plus some tuning.....and bigger tires.
    Not sure of top speed....I told him I had enough at 155MPH in 4th gear. It has a 6 speed. I felt like I had drank 2 pots of coffee.

    Not necessarily traitors and renegades. Just disillusioned and out of the loop for half the year.

    As Flo and Eddy used to say...

    "How can you be in two places at once, when you're not anywhere at all?"

    Anyway. At the moment it looks as if I could have taken those shots in sunny CA!!
