I'd love to play in snow. I haven't seen snow in 6-7 years and that was my first time seeing snow.

yes...my jato...as of now i only need a reciever, but i just replaced the crankcase and havent fired it since. and i dont used ARO so i have no clue how my engine will be. right after i got the crankcase i tried firing it up, but it wouldnt and i went through 3 batteries and then found out that the reciever went bad. i got mad and started kicking my jato back to my room where it still sits now. oh well looks like i have one thing i know ill definatly put on my christmas list

It doesn't snow much here in SoCal ( ), so here are a few photos from this last January, when I went to the Reno/Lake Tahoe area:











The parking lot where I took the second photo had black ice on some spots. Luckily, it wasn't that thick, and I drove the Pede ahead of where I was walking, so the Pede's tire chains shattered the ice and it glared in the sun when it shattered, so I was able to see it and avoid it.
