i hate u.... but if it was 70*F here half the town would be out of a job lol.... my town thrives off the business the mountain brings in... we get cone-heads in a line of traffic backed up like almost 10 miles somtimes on weekends all of them leaving the mountain...

on holidays the mountain gets like 10,000 people a day.. (i know some of u guys in colorado or where ever have big skii mountains prolly get more a day.. but for my town, thats good)

those 10,000 people a day keep all the small business and gift shops running lol if my town didnt have cone-heads we would be a run down town... lol

oh btw heres my winter beater (also on the road since i wrecked my '01)

It may be nice now but I really miss the snow...And the 115* heat in the summer is NOT fun.

I used to live in Stowe, VT! I know exactly what you mean. Our family still has a hunting camp in Richford!

Hello

My B2 even with a weak battery starts with no problem if plugged in. The T-Bird starts up to -35/-40 not plugged in. The Stang I said the hell with it and parked it for the winter and pulled the battery. The Stang will start to about -30 unplugged.

No snow here. We might get some thursday/friday, which will essentially shut the town down, and anyone with a truck will be extremely lucky lol. No salt trucks, let alone plows here. I think theres one total in all of charleston, and it's OLD as hell. We haven't had snow here in 20 years. If it does, its so light, and doesn't stick.

We've had a cold spell here, it's been between -15 and 0 without windchill here for the past week or so. 20 above sounds lovely right now especially when you've got stuff to work on!

i was down there a few years ago for christmas. i was eating breakfast on the deck in blue jeans and a cut off tee. there were people walking by in winter jackets looking at me like i was crazy. it was 50 degrees there and 60 back home.

right now its 10 above and a blizzard is coming. i love that the old people go to arizona for the winter so i dont have to deal with their driving.
