I was hoping for a break in March... doesn't look like we're gonna get it. The wife and I drove back from Anchorage a few days ago and actually had to wait for them to shoot down avalanches and clear the road... TWICE.... before we could pass. Somebody make it stooooooooooooop!

Hey guy......How much snow do you have down there? Hopefully me and a buddy with a brown bear tag will be down there early April. But if you got a lot of snow too, the bears may be late coming out of their dens.

We do have more than usual, but it's so hard to tell what's going to happen here. Yesterday was in the 30's and it looked like things were starting to melt.... water pouring off rooftops, etc... but then it got cold and cloudy again. Hopefully it will be melting soon, but right now still a lot on the ground.

And my Xmas present to myself. I couldn't justify keeping the Jeep after a year and a half of not being off road. So something a little more comfortable and fun for the Maryland locale.

Man I like those nissans especially the gt-r haha but 100K is alot of money. I got the jeep payed off recently and now I am contemplating buying a sports car but I want all wheel drive. So leaning towards a wrx or evo. I hear the evo has problems though.
As far as front wheel drives are concerned I like the 2013 ford focus st and the mazda speed 3. The price tag on those are a little friendlier too. O yeah the grass looks good too. I kinda frogot what green grass looked like.
