Anyone get any snow last night? Anyone have to drive their Cars in the snow? I actually kind of miss daily driving the SS...made my commutes on the snow much more exciting lol. Oh well, after 3 winters in the SS, I'm glad I have the Civic for a beater.
The only real problem I had was in my driveway...snow up to the rocker panels FTL.
My sister even made it to work...over 40 miles in a V6 5-speed Mustang lol.

I had to drive the 96 Buick Lesabre b/c the ole lady didn't want to get stuck driving 5 minutes away to work. 
So I had to drive 45 minutes to work in the buick and get stuck twice so she could drive the 4 wheel drive truck to work only a walk away....
Fu(king Women!
Oh yeah... I forgot! In 10 inches of snow!

Spring break....Panama City FL. Should be interesting. I figure I need to get down there before I get to old to have a good time like that. I'll be 24 next month so... Lots of alcohol will be consumed for sure.

Pretty much we avoided the ice here in Akron, but we've just been dumped on with snow and it is still coming down and not due to stop for a few hours. We are just shut down. I'd go out and play in the parking lot but I'd get my Camaro stuck just trying to get there, it is just way too deep.

I had about 2 feet in my driveway....
Street had 2 feet, the plowed it at 2am and then woke up to a foot in the street.
I made it all the way to the north side for work in 3 tone 33 miles away, was not fun though.... a guy that lies 4 blocks away called in and pretty much everyone on dasy shift called in because of the snow.....
When there is bad weather LEAVE REALLY EARLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Snow was halfway up the car.

I don't know the exact amount but it is a lot, minimum of 6-8 inches easily. Akron OH is shut down pretty much, $200 fine if you are out on the roads and you aren't just going home from work or are emergency personnel or something like that. Glad I don't have anywhere to go.

yeah today was bad out. But I went sledding for 2 1/2 hours 
I had fun up until the point I busted my a$$ and smoked my head on the ice LOL
After that I had a headache for a couple hours and then decided to go home about 30 minutes after that happened. But I had FUN! I took my 2 nephews with me and they had a blast!
