Here's one from last night right after it started. We had 3 inches in one hour!. Literally from none to three real quick and it kept this up all night off and on.

Drive heck! My butt is sitting at the house!
My idiot neighbors have been trying to get their car out of the driveway for the last hour and I am not pushing anything!
Here are some more of our situation here, more to follow once I go outside.

 




Check out how its piled up around the wheels of the truck!

I see absolutely zero reason to go outside.  ;)

We had 7 inches this morning, 8 to 11am. Can't see the roads to drive. More to come. Think I'll stick around and play chase the baby's momma.

I'm sitting in L.A. looking at 3" of snow on the ground . Drove here from Atlanta last week . Glad I missed all the icy interstates . Oh L.A. , that's lower Arkansas . Next trip will be back south to sunny Fl. for a little saltwater fix .

Its still a mess tonight. Very little melting during the day and now its all refrozen.


One thing I learned about the Z71 today is it is one bad sucker in the snow. Put it in auto4 and go! Of course when went to the store the wife said she had never done doughnuts so I had to oblige! You gotta love a drifting class in the parking lot at Publix!


Some of the hills in the the hood. If you look close you can see some of the kids sledding on the opposite hill. The kids had a blast today.

Same here Lew. Carolyn became stir-crazy, "Had" to go shopping. The entire town was closed, except "Kohl's". They NEVER close. The employees said today they never close, even in CAT 4 Hurricanes.

Oh boy. So threw the Tahoe in 4W-H, and off we went.

"But darling, look how much I saved".

Spent a hundred dollars (but saved 600 dollars) and despite the chase, never caught the "baby momma".

I tried every venue, tried hard for recognition....can I get a witness?

I could not imagine trying to get up the hills in the snow/ice with that CCP behind us :shock:   Looks like we timed that trip perfectly :wink:
