Default Snowing in Vegas! So, excuse for car pics :)

I know that, to most people, snow is a horrible inconvenience and nothing to get excited over, but we only get snow in the Vegas valley once every few years. So, when I woke up this morning, and saw the snow coming down... I headed straight over to Red Rock canyon to sit and enjoy the weather. Of, course Pics of the car were inevitable. Driving in the snow made it dirty, but who cares LOL

nice landscape, but over in the mid-west we get it pretty often, and couple that with almost NO cool scenery, and you get gross brown/grey snow mounds in every parking lot/side walk and awful overcast skies for the rest of the day =(

Nice pics by the way, and your car looks really well done. I like the license plate, and rear panel(dont know what its called) on the trunk. Very well thought out lol!

It doesn't snow here much but when it does, look out! We did get 13.5 " over Christmas which sets a top 3 record for our area.
I am so pleased that this past weekend the weather was in the 60s so all the snow is gone! Thank God!

Nice pics but i have to say, that's not REAL snow. If you're not stuck, aren't in a snowball fight, haven't dodged some azzhole in an out-of-control-spin and had to dig your car out, that ISN'T snow! LOL!

Seriously, when I moved from PA to Kentucky, they declared an emergency after "predicting" 5 inches and then closed everything. It snowed maybe 4" the next day, the town closed down and people were in ditches everywhere. I don't even bother to put the SUV in 4WD for a lousy 4" nuisance snow.

Seriously though, I've been in plenty of places with *real* snow. Can't say I miss that mess at all. But, it IS nice to get a little dusting here in Vegas now and then. Makes me want to go out for a walk.
