PS - no snow here in Simcoe, ON yet.

The worst is the constant darkness. We're down to less than 9 hours of daylight each day, and still over a month to go to the shortest day. I leave for work in the dark, I get home in the dark. The only daylight I'll see for the next 4 months is through my office window.

Then what you need is the daily work schedule of the mayor of Toronto. In at 11 am, out by 3 pm.

Look at the bright side - at least now we're laughing at Toronto because of Rob and not because they need to call in the army to save them whenever they get more than 4" of snow.

Oh come on your missing out on snow drifting. Though the salt will eat any and all of your rubbers and bushings. Still awesome experience.

Agreed, the snow drifting is nice.
Especially when you have the snowplow drifts to keep your ass end on the road!

This is a sad thread indeed. Shameless plug: sunny and 75 here in California I'll continue driving top down all winter. Send cold weather! My seat heaters need more use.
