Winter...

temps. go to 30.... 20..... 10.... Wind chills in the negative 0'*. Snowy and white, Bringing our wonderful cars into the ditch or worse, another car. Slush gets into the bottom and corrodes the frame. So winter....




And Don't came back.

UGH DON'T say the word WINTER. I hate winter. I hate lake effect snow, I hate cold, I hate salt, I hate rust, I hate the bright *** snow on the ground, I hate not having leaves on the trees, I hate ALL of it.

As I said before, roads here are literally coated with salt = rust.

Oh well, at least we don't get as cold as WI and MN.

I LOVE WINTER! Winter is great.

Burning all that firewood I've been cutting, pulling people back onto the road, bombing through snowdrifts, listening to the chatter on the CB from plow drivers. Did I mention I like winter?

Nope. Lake Erie is shallow, and warm water + cold weather = Lots of lake effect snow.

EDIT - A little lesson on it - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_effect_snow
