Donnington and the Snow

MrItaly · 12-13-2019, 11:36 AM

We got dumped on (by our local standards) the last two days, and I can't park the car down the ramp in the garage as usual. Needless to say, she's sleeping outside tonight. Anyway, as I left her I noticed the lighting was spectacular and took this shot. Enjoy.......

Beautiful shot. Agreed!

So when it snows, you leave the car outside

Dude, snow tires??

Dude, scorpion winters. You have no idea how steep my ramp is into my garage under the house with stone walls on either side which aren't forgiving to slippage or error. Got in late and wasn't about to spend the rest of my evening shoveling snow. Rest assured she survived her first night in out in the cold. Just picked up another 20 cases of wine which cannot stay outside overnight. With that, I'm off to go shovel snow and clear my ramp. She'll sleep warm tonight. Ciao.......

You’re collecting wine to take back and I’m bringing beers back haha. I’ll sure miss cheap German beers.

Good call on the winter tires. Sucks to be the guy driving a performance vehicle in the snow with summers tires. That's not fun....
