    Early snow last night up here... put your SWB away

    Well, Old Man Winter is getting an early start up here in New Hampshire. Here are a few photos from this morning for the West Coast crowd (dreaming of Lake Tahoe, most likely).

    They haven't salted the roads yet. I'd hoped to drive the 911 around the other side of Lake Sunapee and visit with Damon at Series900 this weekend, but it looks like the SWB Porsche may be relegated to the garage.

    This is why there are Carrera 4's, I suppose...

    Best Regards,
    Andy

    Andy,
    The snow wasn't sticking at work, but I got home last night at 10 and found about 2" of snow. On my way into work this morning there were salt trucks out because of some icy patches. Well, I guess auto-hibernation season is already here. I'm in the Upper Valley (by Dartmouth), where are you?
    No 911 content - the dog has a nice stance, though - but this photo was from last night, you can see the snow is not insignificant.

    Just checked Nation Weather Service -- looks like we're now under a winter storm watch for tomorrow night... up to 6 inches. Mostly Maine + New Hampshire.

    Ahhhh the sixties... I envision myself one early Saturday morning wearing plaid shorts, black shoes with white socks smoking a cigarette heading to the hardware store to buy a bag of nails.
    SWB cars are an acquired taste however once acquired theirs no turning back.

    I am glad I live in the land of eternal summer. Staying inside all winter and posting pictures of your dog? Sheesh. [wink]

    If you see Damon ask him how his two dogs Metzge and Lemoyne are feeling.
