Holiday storms

Hi all,
A late holiday greetings from the states. We have been pounded by snow storms over the last 2 weeks here. Some pretty severe coastal storms too. I took shoots of the erosion in front of my house ( we have 18 miles of beaches we can drive on to the North of us ) after finding a way around the locked storm gates thru the dunes. Later this day due to a fatality accident along the coastal hiway we live off of the little lady and I had to make our way to the beach and travel better that 12 miles to this access road. It was a blast until we hit ice and 6 inches of snow the last mile or so. No worries though, have 89 rx turbo, 4 studded tires and Im going anywhere! Damn these Sub's are awesome!
Happy New Year to all!!

HaHa, to us too :P. You should have seen the abandoned vehicles littering our interstate hiway systems.

It definately added to what would be a typical mundane shopping trip to town with the little lady

This has been an exceptional winter this year, breaking 20 year old snow records....and it has been a drag on my nearly 300 mile round trip to work:(
Note the latest erosion ( sign post in 1st and 2nd pic). My house is just behind tree line and I may have ocean front soon
