Lucky bastard.


Here's some pics from my last drive a little while ago. Here in the PA mountains (though nothing compared to CO's mountains.) we've received about 8" so far with no signs of letting up.

Here's a (partially plowed) road pic and a gratuitous poser pic.

Sitting here watching the Fordham/Army game. There must be close to ten inches and it's still coming down like crazy!


Think I'll take the top off tomorrow...

It was very bad up here in MA... Trees and power lines down everywhere and widespread power outages (I still have no power so thank god for smartphones!!). I am a supermarket manager and was at my store until 2am last night packing all perishables in totes and putting it in refrigerated trailers.. Driving home was awful, even in my rig. I had to drive over and through several tree limbs, power lines, etc. I also had to shift into 4-lo a couple times to get more torque when needed. A regular 20 minute commute to and from work took almost 2 hrs.. Now I have to go back in on my day off and put the store back together because the power is back!!

My jeep hasn't seeing any snow yet, all stock for now, and I'm wondering how it'll perform in the snow
