You better believe it they do, the highways, and my road, and most country roads, that are school bus routes are well plowed. The City Of Selkirk streets are done well, but Winnipeg is an icy slick nightmare except for the main drags.....Fred

The low was about 62 this morning just before I went out to run some errands in my old beast. Went by our construction site and the architect had the A/C running in the office. A bit warm and stuffy in there but the wind took care of the outside.

Supposed to top out in the mid 70's today but the low ill be in the mid 20's on Sunday morning.:(

Same here, Fred. Only main drags are cleared, side streets are never touched and some become impassable.

Been very cold (-20's c :mad: )for a couple of weeks but now we go to +5c (41f):) for a few days...gonna get real real greasy and messy!!

This was taken today, Friday the 9th, my 49 parts car and the front clip from the 50 DeSoto I have yet to dismantle:

Looking forward to +5c (41f) to get rid of some of this white depressing crap:(

I drive mine alnost every day and if I don't I drive my 55 chevy pick up. To day took it to Home Depot and got lumber for some concrete forms. Wife went back later to buy some good steel shelving for the garage and a man in a Dodge truck backed out into the pick up as she was going by. Right front fender, front door post, door, rear cab corner, and right rear fender. Will see what State Farm has to say after the adjuster sees it.

I was driving my P-15 coupe 4 or 5 times a week,but the last time I drove it it either fried the ignition module,or jumped time. Started backfiring through the base at 65 MPH,and then just quit running.

The weather here has been nice,and I've been too busy stripping parts cars to clean up the yard,doing house repairs,and painting the house to even look at the P-15. I'll try to get around to fixing it when the weather turns bad again.

Even my 37 Dodge pu let me down the other day.

I used it to haul some trash to the dump a couple of days ago,and since the weather was in the low 70's,I had the drivers window rolled down. When I got back home the sky was dark and the thunderstorm they were calling for was on me,and the damn window wouldn't roll up. It had fallen off the track.

Have to do some yard work today,but I'll try to fix the pu window tomorrow.

BTW,I don't drive this one unless I really need a truck. Has a 300+ hp big block in it and it's 4x4 with 4:10 gears. Gets 10-12 MPG.
