Well the best we can do for snowmen are the blow up kind! Spent the day hanging lights and decorating. At least it was about 75 degrees and beautiful out. Best wishes to all and HAPPY HOLIDAYS, hope you all get that special mod you want for your Mini this Christmas.

Holy nice scenery! Sure beats the pure gray we have here in Pittsburgh. It did snow briefly the other day to add at least a little white.

So far I have put 1500 christmas lights on my bushes in my front yard and I am not yet done! Clark Griswald here I come

Wig-Wam Motel... no kidding? I didn't know that even existed anymore... I remember actually staying there in the 50's as a little kid on the way to a family vacation. I figured it got demolished by urban sprawl years ago.

We're looking for a little bit of snow flurries tonight here in N.E. Georgia... it's getting downright "nippley" outside right now!!

Cheers!
Craig

UKNUT,
How about that, my wife is a Chicagoan.
Chitown's not quite Southern Indiana but still a little midwestern village.
(sure to get flamed if she reads this. . . )

Although I took this up at Big Bear back in April, it'll serve as a festive SoCal image.

Wow The Wig-Wam! I have not heard of that or seen it for 15 years. What a great place. For those who are not familiar with it, it was a 4050's era motel on Route 66 where you actually stayed in individual TeePees!



And for the snow, Blacknblu, no thanks I like my skies and clear and warm. Great pic though!
