Ben Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Okay, I'm jealous. It's 26 degrees here at 11:00 am. LOL, I would trade a couple days of our weather for a couple days of snow like that! As long as I didn't have to work in it! I was born in Michigan and lived there till 76. I miss the snow. We have only had it here in San Antonio two or three times since I moved here. The deepest was in 87 and that was only about two feet. Since then we have just had a very light ground covering snow once or twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtracer2448 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 We got 14 inchs of fresh, wet-heavy snow last night on the west side of Michigan Same here in central Michigan Von. I guess our storm has moved to the east coat and in Connecticut they have closed every road in the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moparfarmer Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Can't show pictures(no hosting site and I'am not smart enough to do it other ways) we have over 36"in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada.

It was about 1 foot, on the east side of Toronto, talking to my buddies on the West side about the same, give or take a few inches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Easy for you to say! I spent the first 27 years of my life in Chicago so trust me, I do know what a pain it is but I still maintain fresh snowfall is beautiful. It may look more beautiful from my couch in Arizona however. ; ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenrat Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 As it's forecast to be 30 today (that's 92 in american degrees) then no, no pics. But I feel for you all 'cause I hate the cold white stuff. Stay safe and warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyCoupe41 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) Took this pic today after that I digged my Corolla under the snow. It looks bit angry because it's been whole winter outside. Edited February 9, 2013 by ChevyCoupe41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie8575 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Criminy, that thing is ancient! What year is it? Almost every Japanese car that vintage around here would've turn to a pile of rusty dust years ago, I'm surprised that didn't happen in Finland of all places.

Almost every Japanese car that vintage around here would've turn to a pile of rusty dust years ago, I'm surprised that didn't happen in Finland of all places. Charlie Larkin Year is 1975. These KE 20 Corollas were very popular cars back in 70's in here Finland so we have these still left but not very much. All of these 70's Japanese cars rusted very easy also here in Finland and lots of these went in the scrap yard.There is some rust on my car but not too much to save it. Engine is another story... When my grandpa owned this Corolla he pulled small caravan with it and that small 1,2 liter engine didn't like that idea at all.

Tom Geiger Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I love the old Corolla. In 1978 I was given a brand new Corolla wagon as a company car. I put 100,000 miles on it in two years without a peep! It was still there when I left the company. Always loved that car. We also had a 1994 that my father in law bought new. He gave it to my daughter to use for college when he stopped driving. It had 45,000 miles on it. My daughter smacked it up, and the photo below is it after I repaired it. I used it a bit for work and then gave it to my brother in law because he needed a car and we had too many. He still uses it daily and it has about 60,000 on it.

rmvw guy Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) I would be hard pressed to find any snow here today although, did see some along the river bank this morning. We are now getting some lite rain so, got the Jeep out to work on it a little preparing for some more bad weather, just in case. This is where the first photo on this thread was taken. Snow ain't all that bad! Edited February 10, 2013 by rmvw guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 It's not as bad as it looks, and with the 40s and rain most of the week, it won't be a problem too long. These is my personal favorites of the whole roll. The Wayside Inn Village Grist Mill on the Marlborough/Sudbury line (other side of town from me), built in 1929 to replicate an 18th-Century grist mill one might have seen in New England. The Martha-Mary Chapel, also at Wayside Inn Village. Built in 1940, this is a non-denominational chapel used mostly for weddings, and is meant to emulate an 18th-Century New England church (not like we don't have enough of them, but most are still owned by their distinct congregations). Henry Ford, you might find it interesting, helped to underwrite the building and rebuilding of Wayside Inn Village and the restoration of The Wayside Inn. Yes, that Wayside Inn of Longfellow fame. I didn't go that far down the road, though, but you can see a little bit of it peeking out in this picture. I wish the sun hadn't gone down as quick, the picture of City Hall looked really nice in the viewfinder! Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmvw guy Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 Nice pictures, see snow isn't so bad and it will melt eventually, just watch out for the flooding if it melts too fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
