iPhone SE of all things, without any photoshopping. Wasn't really expecting to exit the car (brrr..) let alone take any pictures, but it was just too nice of a morning.

60 miles east of you. I think I may have seen you drive in the Hat. No stripes on you? Perhaps PM me and we'll meet up with the cars for a coffee.

Amen. It kills me evey time and usually doubles the time required for any trip. I have been thinking about buying some farm land along the highway, just to build a garage, but then I wouldn't be able to look at it while enjoying a beer just before going to bed. :wink

Alberta has plenty of oil, nice roads and great skiing. But the length of our winter does test the patience of car enthusiasts. I thought I would share a nice pic of a morning this winter were I could no longer wait. It was -25 degrees Celcius (so not too bad). Wishing you all an imminent...

Thank you all for the advice. I am located in Toronto but the car will eventually follow me to the dry climes of Alberta (in a trailer...). I look forward to navigating my way around the site. Thanks again. Cheers
