Hey all,

Just thought I’d show you some pictures of the snow we have here right now. As you can see, there is really a lot everywhere by now and thank god I drive an Audi Quattro. It’s the perfect car here although sometimes the snow gets so thick that a vehicle with more ground clearance would be even better.

We are expecting a great amount of extra snow from tomorrow and perhaps about 20 cm or 0.6 feet of increase in the snow layer.

I was just looking through my iPhone photo album and I found we had taken some nice photos of the very heavy rain we encountered here in Tallinn sometime in the Summer. I guess no words needed, just look at the streets… :)

So, just like every year, we had our driving season opening event for all hobby cars, but mostly American ones ofcourse. It took place at a freshly renovated quarter in Tallinn called Rotermann quarter. Personally I think that the idea to have the event there was very good and we can be satisfied with the event overall. There were some difficulties finding all the cars since they were parked randomly between the buildings and some locations were a bit hidden. We arrived pretty much at the beginning of the gathering so we managed to park the Corvette at one of the best possible locations – right in front of the stage where the bands played and people talked from. An uncountable number of  boys and girls took pictures with the two black C3 Corvettes next to them and it was a nice feeling to see how people like the work and money I put into my car. Even the American embassador in Estonia was there with his armored Cadillac Deville and he and his wife held a short speech about how they like our hobby and their 1968 Mustang they had when they were young. Certainly plausible to see their support. Below are some nice photos of the cars:
