What I found under the tree this morning  :()

You found a vehicle parked under your tree?

Hope it didn't knock the windshield out of it. Looks like it hit hard enough to knock the front tag down at a skew...LOL

Lucky for me the window had a nice 18 inch blanket of frozen snow on it..   The heaviest snowfall was followed by about an hour of rain/sleet so the shovels and the snow blower both got an all day workout.

Last night the temp went from 33 degrees down to -6 with a 20 below windchill...  So anything that diddn't get plowed is pretty much there for the duration.. :)

It's a 4-runner John...  Twas Dads, but when he recieved his ultimate promotion he left it to me and I keep it for sentimental reasons (and the 4WD)..

So when people give me trouble for driving an import in a GM plant town, I just tell them it's my "dead Dad's truck" and they get quiet really quick...  Works every time..  :)

I bet you could've waited until Christmas to find that one.

That sure looks cold. Makes me kinda shiver looking at it, but then when I look away its all warm and cozy here. Helps me to remember why I left Michigan along time ago.

That,s not the only reason to leave Michigan! Go Buckeyes! Putting armor on over flameproof suit!

Lawrence,

I find a broom to be far more effective for removing the snow off my windshield...

Actually though...It's been so cold here in Montana the past 2 weeks that I've been using a Leaf Blower for the deck, sidewalks and cars!

Two mornings ago, it was so cold, my dog froze to death on 3 legs next to a fencepost.........(drum rolllll     cymbal    groans)

It was colder than a Pawn Brokers Heart!

In a town near me a child in school was asked to draw a picture of something that reminded him of Christmas, the boy drew a picture of Jesus on the cross with two Xs for eyes.
The boy was suspended and is now required to seek psychological help for drawing a violent picture...........
WTF?
I would be happy if my boys did that…..it shows me they know its not all about toys.

I hear you there, Just so you know I'm a long way off from being politically correct as a matter of fact I'm sick of being told to ignor my own beliefs and traditions just to make a bunch of fussy forigners feel good. So again a MERRY CHRISMAS to you and yours and I hope you have a happy and prosperous new year.

PS-Thanks for all your excellent post's, you are with out a doupt a wealth of information.

Kind Regards,
Richard.
