This is why it's tough to buy a new car in the winter!

Aftermath of the first snowstorm of the year in Buffalo, NY! Due to excessive garage clutter, my car has to sit outside. This picture shows my 3 week old HHR Panel with most of the accumulation of two days worth of "lake effect" snow removed. (I didn't think to take a picture until after I dug her out) We ended up with just under 3 feet of white stuff before the snow engine turned off. Just another day in paradise!



And yes, that license plate is a contradiction in terms. It was transferred from my former SOM '07 HHR that gave way to the Panel. A new theme is under development which will call for a new vanity plate!

A big carrot in the grill might look sweet.

Damn that just ain't right I had to make a dump run, a goodwill run, a recycle run, and put my larger tools in my little brothers storage then donate 3 old monster monitors. To make room in the garage but both cars are tucked in at night.

That's a great idea! With the weather forecast for next week I'm sure I'll have the opportunity to set it up.

Drove to school on Wed, took the SS home by lunch. Could not get traction in the 3 inches of snow that fell in 3 hours. Need to either park it or get some snow tires. Or drive the Jeep.
Glad I was no where near South Buffalo, Lancaster, W. Seneca, or Depew. 4 feet of snow is a lot of digging.
