Fool.... now we know who to blame.. Let's see, Sat... Sunny and 22 above.. Sunday High of 24.. then.... Snow by Wednesday.. like last week, morning showers. Noon hour snowstorm, sunny and clear for dinner... great for golfing. Sound familiar? Weather in Calgary.. Just wait a minute. IT WILL CHANGE.

AH.... so it was you that changed the wonderful weather forcast... prior to changing your tires, we were to have sun, warmth and more sun... it changed right around the noon hour to possible rain, cooler weather... That would be your fault, right?

Toyos.......

Put the summer rubber back on, it's like someone is pounding on the suspension with a sledgehammer every time I go over an expansion strip. Switched to Toyos, now it's only like someone pounding the suspension with a RUBBER mallet.

We're metric - that's 22 degrees Celcius! Equates to around 70 Fahrenheit... :D
