I remember when I moved to Alberta in 92, I got bugged about my Sask plates being 'learner' plates.

That snow turns my stomach. Blech...you can have it.
To make you feel better it has been cool here today. Don't think it will get past 75.

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Scottie, just after the sun came up this morning I was outside in shorts and bare feet washing my my truck and my wifes car. The water comimg out of the hosepipe was nice and warm. The air felt really nice. The boids were choipin, the flowers were blooming and the butterflies were out in full color. It felt soooooooooo good to be here.
Want to join me? My truck has never seen ice or snow.

Scotty,
Looks like Kodiak Island, AK during our "Blizzard 03". The folks that are from the lower 48 thought it was a terrible blizzard but in reality it was just blowing snow. Drive slow (read less then 5 mph) and steady--don't stop, you'll do fine. Its the folks who stop that cause the problem. Glad you made it safely. The CTD will go through anything!!

Dang, glad you made it out and around ok!! Glad that CTD is heavy, looks like it would have blown cars off the road!
Did you have to keep in in 4wd?

I was in 4x2 with right wheels on the dirt just off the shoulder. 4x4 on the pavement was worse. 4x4 on the shoulder caused some real choppy driving.
The road was getting polished up real nice.
Just north of the red star...

Thats why they put that little lever on the floor with the 4X4 on it! I'm not sure it helps with low visability though.
