I hear ya with the ruts, Matt. Here we have many back alleys, and that’s a navigation problem when it freezes where you have to back out, etc,

What I really like is the whiplash like motion the steering wheel gives your arms and wrists as you work your way around the streets.

That Old Man Winter is a mischievous character for sure. :shock:

Have you noticed how scrawny newcomers to our winter wonderland of shoveling and hard work driving find that by Spring they’ve built up biceps like the rest of us. You can always pick out a Newbie. :P

Right now it's 59°/15° and sunny. I remember those cold, slushy winters very well. Be safe guys.

That’s how I ended up in cold country, Mike. Family can be a good reason to get ya there. I first came here when I finished school and came with my father’s transfer with the intention to move farther east by Toronto. Well, two years later the family moved back to the warmer coast, I stayed because of work, got married to a prairie girl and voila I inherited 40° below, rust on the cars, and a toque. :lol: We eventually shed our mukluks and moved to the coast for 15 years; but, for family we came back to Winterpeg.

It’s now 18°F/-8°C but the 66% humidity makes it chilly, and that’s how I got to plug in my engine block heater for the first time this season tonight. :P
It’s not so bad until I see all the tourist promotions showing my old tourist home on TV. At least I’ve been there done that, Besides, I’d miss waving to and cursing the guy in the snow plow as he piles frozen snow across the driveway each year. :P

Well, Mike...it's 75 in Boca at this writing....74 in Puerto Vallarta where we'll be in two weeks time for our 12 week winter vacay, and 53 in Melbourne, AU from where I returned on the 11th of November. Been chasing the thermometer around from polar to tropical since October 3rd. Don't know what to dress for.

I remember coming back from 112+ heat in Panama to frigid weather at home, and I had the shakes for almost a month. :roll:
It warmed up to 27°F here today, so Mike I feel for ya brother.

Have good times in Puerto Vallarta, Doc.

It's 57°/14° here, so no complaints. I really start shivering at about 50°. It's amazing how our bodies adjust to our environment.

Have a great trip, Doc!

Don't find it to be THAT 'high' in Mexico. Likely 'higher' and colder in MA and WA these days than Carlin could ever have dreamed of.
