Potential n00b

So. I'm strongly considering making the hike up to Cleveland from St. Augustine, Florida for good...

I was just wondering how bad the winters are on MINIs and whatnot...

If anything I'll probably be spending a month or so helping out with my grandmother who lives in Gates Mills and would love to meet some people that share my love...

I've been tagging MINIs this week while I've been up here with Sunshine MINIs cards.. so if you've been tagged that was me :D

Oh.. and if anyone knows any decent neighborhoods and apartments with fair rent, let me know

the winters in the gates mills area suck lol that is because it is the start of the snow belt (that is the part of northeastern ohio that gets a lot of snow). however the road service crews in that area do do a very good job of keeping the roads clean. plus it is my experance that the mini does really will in the snow. if you have never driven in snow i recomand that you go to a snow coverd parking lot and slide the mini around a bit so you can get used to what it will do. i hope this helps

also i have a friend that lives in mayfield she will know about places to rent i will have her pm you

I live right next to Gates Mills in Mayfield Village. Yeah we get a ton of snow but I have never been stuck in my mini. The keep the roads clear, our hard tax money at work. Last year I put on snow tires and felt a definate improvement. Welcome back to Ohio.
