I bet it is pretty down there with the snow!
Pretty FUN!!!

Drove the dragon once on at night on wet leaves (a big storm just came thru). That's about as close as I'll probably ever get to having the S there in the cold.

A bit white-knuckle at times but it sure was fun! My passenger didn't have much to say during that drive... probably didn't help that it was his introduction as we first arrived!

Yeah we tried to 'shop out the power lines, but when it's grungy like that it's almost impossible. Ah well!
