My Boxster saw snow!

Okay, I was driving around New Orleans yesterday but it was in a very pedestrian Pontiac rental mobile. Was staying on St. Charles and it was sort of cool to see the street cars running in the snow. Drove out to look at the hurricane protection project between the Orleans Avenue Canal and the London Avenue Canal and they had the bridges closed because of the weather. Being a northerner I just drove around the barricades.

BTW, my Boxster is hibernating in my garage here in Minnesota.

I know all you northerners just laugh at how excited we get here over snow. I can't even tell you how many people I saw taking pictures yesterday when I was leaving my neighborhood. My brother even called me from his software training he's in this week to ask if I could take pictures of the snow. I have a friend who is also a court reporter like me and she refused to go to her job because she said who's going to pay for her car if she wrecks, and she drives an SUV. She thought I was nuts to go, but there wasn't really snow on the ground so it wasn't bad.

Ah.. New Orleans in the Winter Time. Nothing quite like the sound of newly fallen snow crunching under your tires as you pull out of the garage.

Do you own an ice scraper?
