EXCELLENT photos, as always...they truly BREATHE nostalgia!!!!!!! :wink

Recall, back in the "Old days", the Old Looks and MACKS slugged it out through all but the most serious snow events; today, all you get is a flurry, and, already, the modern 21st century buses are pulling off to the side of the streets in droves, or heading back to the garage.....aahh, progress..... Razz
