    This am around 8,what I have been unpatiently waiting its arrival, finally showed up.We got about an inch of snow and some freezing rain.It was taken care of by the 3 of us on I-80.To bad its supposed to get up to the mid 50's tomorrow.I can't wait till an all out assault comes our way! Need to get some OT so I can get back on my feet and possibly get some more Buick stuff I am needing.Here is a pic of my snow killer vehicle.

    Greg Schmelzer What are you looking at?!

    Wow!!!

    That is amazing Pat!! They actually let you go out with the plow with only an inch a some ice/freezing rain?

    We just got about 10" in western Nebraska Thanksgiving weekend and the state went out once, I think. I guess it is just cheaper to shut the interstate down and let the solar powered snow removal take care of it! :rant:

    Here are a few pics of the trip home.

    First one is US 83 north of North Platte.
    2d one is on US 83 after you get into the valley. A little better conditions, but it snowed less in the valley.

    3d on is I-80 east of NP. All this is still there after it had been snowing for about 6 - 8 hours. Still not cleared!!! I guess the state budget is more important than 41 cars in the ditch and 7 fatalities! :rant: :rant: :rant:

    Hey guys, you like snow! I live in Sweden and we have about 5 month of snow every year and I hate it. :af: I should correct this, I hate cold weather. I can take snow if it was temperatures in the 70s outside. This would take care of the snow too, a bonus. The winter also means I cant drive my Buicks. I have to wait another 5 month which drives me nuts. I think I should get me a winter home in Florida like Edison did. :grin:
