--Sitting Bull
My kids got all of their toys out and filled my side of the garage with them (as well as me filling it with extra Vanagon seats and parts, garden equipment, etc...) so I opened my garage door this morning and found this:

Nice one Chad! I love horizontal snow!
Except when I drive!
Old pic. But was not too fun to park in town with it...

First snow of the 2012/13 winter.
Time to get the Doka under cover and the car cover on the Westy!

Well we had one snow fall in No. Arizona but it's all gone now. The first picture is last year the second one is this year. There's nothing like a syncro in the snow!

no pictures of it that i can dig up, but i used to drive my 80 vanagon in the snow all winter long in minus zero and as i recall the winter of 2000 was a real ballbuster. man, i wish i could find some of those pics. nowadays living in florida, its a nonissue. people complain when its in the 40's.

this was the last time i saw snow. i know its not a vw, but its roughly the same speed and requires just as much maintenance. this was in the black sea near russia in about -40 F. there WERE germans in the area and i think at least one must have owned a vw
