Man we got jipped. Not that I would have taken my car out in the snow, but we didn't even get enough snow to make the grass disappear. It's icy as crap, just not anywhere near as much snow though.

All we got was ice but it was still fun!
Re: Snow Day north GA
Yeah we had a constant 7 inches everywhere with 9 inches in the low spots.
My drive is .25 miles long, so I'm not going any where.
The plows still have not made it through the subdivision, the 4wd trucks have turned the road into ice... nice and thanks.
My boss is going to be pissed, but looks like another day off for me... LOL.

Re: Snow Day north GA
Well I work for the State, and with it being inauguration day today, they did NOT cancel work so I had to take a day of leave rather than try to go in. They did cancel it for tomorrow though so I get another day to enjoy my ice!

Drove the wife to work today in the bug. Roads in Gwinnett are really bad. The bug didn't do to bad with it, other than being lowered causes issues when trying to ride in the other cars tracks.

Oh man! I'm so sorry to see that. The old saying is "just remember it could have been worse", but that still doesn't make it any better. Best of luck with the repairs. Glad you are ok.

[img][/img]Well hindsight's 20/20 w/ glasses on so I've heard. took a few days to collect my thoughts n count my pennies and have decided not to hack on ol' Gernie.. I know it looks bad but things happen, like a Timex he took a lickin'...but over the yrs he's had his share of bumps and bruises scrapes and such a few minor surgeries battles w/ cancer(he's still undergoing)and that in part is what makes Gernie special, so Dr.Frank"e" has ordered him to undergo a few minor adjustments followed by an array of massages though scarring and discoloration is expected, we are hoping for a speedy recovery..Thanx everyone
