Nevertheless, if driving in this stuff is giving you pause, get thee to a driving school. Pay the $100 or so for a few private lessons in Snow & Ice Control 101. You'll be glad you did. Next time, it will be confidence, not cockiness, that keeps you out of trouble and on time to work.<br><br>wil<br>http://dailysnooze.blogspot.com/<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489911025579199899.post-23357105423728264522005-12-09T20:34:00.000-08:002005-12-09T20:34:00.000-08:00Wow!

We've only had one snow storm come through our valley below the mountains, leaving us about 6 inches of snow which has pretty much melted to an inch or two now. We've had below freezing temps for a week or better now, so I don't think what's left will melt. It has turned to ice though, a whole 'nother slippery problem! ;)<br>http://boiseladie.blogspot.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489911025579199899.post-53100097725973287682005-12-09T21:54:00.000-08:002005-12-09T21:54:00.000-08:00After 62 years of New England winter weather, we d...After 62 years of New England winter weather, we didn't want to see 63!

A few years back, I skidded to a stop and was turned 360 degrees at a busy intersection in Michigan. Needless to say, I do not do snow anymore.

Being prepared can go a long way to ensure your car is not going to need replacement parts. I wrote in my journal about my nephew being hit head-on driving on the Interstate 55, south of Chicago. At first he had no feeling from his neck down. Then from his waist down. MRI showed a small amount of bleeding on one side of his brain. The Neurologist had said that he showed pinched nerve injury and disk dislocation after being first examined. My mother told me several days ago that he had returned to work, and that means a 120 mile round trip drive each day. We are so relieved that he is doing so well. He was told to expect some future "possible problems" from his injury. Take extra care to be safe Mary, and you will get through whatever nature brings your way. Thank you for the compliment on my artwork!
