Where are you from? Even up here the quality of snow removal can vary. Yeah interstates tend to get priority as well as the busier roads. Side streets in rural areas can be iffy. The city of St. Paul in particular is really bad at snow removal on its side streets and they can't have winter parking bans, because many homes over there don't have much for driveways to park their cars. Street parking is about all there is. Snow removal in Minneapolis and any surrounding suburb tends to be much better than within St. Paul. --- just tell them all your base doesn't belong to us because we were getting stoned...they'll understand-Ken156 <cite>TommyG663513 posted [p:950648991] in Biggest st...
