well, before this stuff melts, i thought i'd take some quick pix. afterwards i couldnt feel my hands, but i'd hate to miss out on my 3gee with some white stuff on it. check it out, we havent had anything like this in 15 years or more. i dont even remember when we got something like this. cool anyways.

ok, i'll show ya that exhaust in a minute, but the ghetto snow turned into the real shit! dude, i live in south texas, its not supposed to snow here! well, now i have a real white christmas. anyway, see for yourself how much it has snowed as of now. pretty cool. i took our '02 accord out for a drive. ok, it slipped up even if i took off in 2nd gear, never has been able to. had to drive slow as hell. while i was in a turning lane, someone though it was ok to try merging into the car, good thing it has a loud ass horn. after the tracks had started to get covered, it just started sliding too easily, so i called it quits for driving. maybe if it was heavier i wouldnt have this problem, maybe some winter tires, these are just touring tires not ment for snow.

look here at my exhaust

i took those a few hours ago, now you cant even see the grass. hehe. well for people down here, they are going crazy over this. you can imagine after never haveing real snow until now. even my grandma is kinda excited, she's lived here since the 50's, she originally lived in West Virginia, so i know this aint shit compared to what they can get. but for anyone who's lived here in corpus christi, you'd be excited. lol.

here's some more pix. these are grainy ass night vision pix. i thought they would load clearer, guess this other camera i used isnt as great as i though. its a sony handi cam instead of my regular plain digi cam i always use. anyway, you can kinda see how there's not grass showing anymore, just all white. hope our plants dont die. dont know if dallas got anything. my uncle in houston told me it wasnt doing much up there right now. we're down here closer to mexico instead of higher up in the state. my city is right on the water.

Damn. I'm jealous; The Frigging ski mountain up here in BC hasn't been able to open because 'el nino' has kept it too warm up here. The ski season is nov thru april, so its a big pain in the ass. Its supposed to change finally next week, but so far we have green xmas. I guess since I can't ski till I the doc lets me that its ok, but I'd like to go have a snowball fight soon or something. Damned climate change!
Happy Holidays!

here's some much clearer pix. there's a big ass difference in quality over the other camera i tried, even in regular mod instead of night vision. i did take more pix than just of my car if you were wondering.

I was thinking the same thing... But its pretty brown/green up here now... not really any snow left.

HondaBoy
12-25-2004, 03:45 PM
hehe, now thats more like it. well i did get that nice digi camera i asked for. yeppie! so now no more grainy poor quality pix. here's some i did just trying it out, they turn out pretty nice and clear. the 1st 2 are the highest quality you can get, the rest are formatted smaller, still came out pretty clear. if you take a look at the other pix i posted, you can really tell a difference.

I love your classic looking ralley wheels man. They are pimp.

HondaBoy
12-27-2004, 11:19 PM
yeah, i just had to put those rims back on. looks nice and old school. i'd like to get some wider tires on there though. those are 175 60's. i want some 205 50's for them, and no they wont rub. all the snow melted of course, didnt think that that'd last for too long. now we're back to warm in the daytime. hopefully it'll get cold again. i havent found really anyone else with these same wheels. there was a picture of a 2nd gen accord limo with them. anyway, maybe when i get it running i'll go and take some decent pix of it in a nice location. not that its not running, just not well enough that i'll drive it.

heh, i knew it looked like something else. i should have made a snow man on the hood. that'd be funny. hope it snows again. this snow we had was record breaking, last it snowed anything similar like this was over 100 years ago in city history.

well, i think the snow here was something i wont see again. if it does snow again, that'd be great. this was a rare thing, like winning the lottery or something.

this isnt very much snow, i think it was at the end of last winter.

HondaBoy

cool, too bad my 3gee wasnt running at the time it snowed here. now it is. i know you dont have your 3gee anymore. anyway, its supposed to get hella cold here at the end of the week. someone said it "might" snow again. that'd be pure luck if it snows again.
