> [@Fry](#): > > I have a garage. 🙂 +1 Of course, so does my neighbor who has so much stuff piled in his two car garage that he can’t even get one car in. I laugh in his general direction every time it snows and I drive away while he’s out scraping his cars. ---

What felt wrong was when the front wheels rolled on top of 6 inches of snow and the roof scraped the door. :sword: ---

I’m surprised I didn’t have the same problem, I had about a 7-8 inch drift up against my door and my 20’s like to act like snowshoes on this hard stuff. ---

Large roof overhang FTW. Otherwise the wife would have probably knocked the garage off the foundation with the Expedition by now. ---

In the fall I’m all for big snow storms. By March I’m ready for 50’s and getting ready for fishing season. ---

I don’t mind the season change from Late November/Early December - Late February/Early March but by then I am sick of it. I hate this 7 months of winter shit.
