Take a look at these pictures I took yesterday, I feel like the poor Gefreiter in the pic I posted in the Sapper's Forum yesterday. Derek.

I guess it's a matter of perspective. I don't know what you are complaining about, you can still see your hubcaps.

I just finished a poaching trip East a few weeks ago and I was amazed at the amount of snow in Ontario, Quebec, and New Brunswick. But then again their temps were all around -4 C. Once I got back to Manitoba, the -27C was there waiting for me. But we only have about a foot of snowfall in total on the ground.

I think I would take the snow over these temps any day. When you live in Manitoba, you take whatever the devil dishes out. Here it is March already, and we are still hitting lows of -32 C at night.

Sorry guys, but it's kind of hard to feel real sorry for any of you. Even snowtractor has been basking in +12C these days since he abandoned the North for the tropics of Alberta.

MY God! They must pay you to live there! LOL! As for blaming the snow on Canadians, isn't that a river in Texas?

At least it's melting rapidly and were due to be back into the mid 60's by the weekened...unseasonably cool, but not too bad.
