I think the worst drivers are in Cleveland. There's lots of Lake Effect snow
on cue, from Halloween to Easter. But you would swear these people have never
seen the stuff. It comes every year!!!
The dogs love the snow, and I hate it. They hate being caged up in the house.
I can't survive out there for longer than 10 minutes. This year I'm going to
buy a snow suit so we can play in the back yard.

Hey Dave......I'm a Caleeefornian......born and raised in Northern California.
Frank and I lived up by Donner Lake for many years......snow would be 8 ft.
deep most of the winters. ( remember the History of the Donner Party )
GSD's love the cold and snow!
Our biggest fear in the winter with blizzards and snow and ice were the flat
land
DRIVERS!! They loved to come to the snow Country but drove like they were on
freeways and thought they were invincible with 4 X 4s. NOT! That video clip
that Zoe sent is so familiar to us in watching weekend skiers.
We seldom went anywhere on weekends in the winter in snow Country.
The biggest thing to remember on ice or icy snow is to NOT brake.....drive so
slow you don't have to........and don't gear down!
The hardest thing to do is to turn the wheel in the direction you DON'T WANT TO
GO when IN a slide........and DON'T BRAKE...........that takes focus.......<G>
As with anything......prevention is always the best method.....drive according
to
weather conditions.......or as Terry said..... <G>

When I drive in ice and snow my chant is Your Brake Is Not Your Friend. I say
it over
and over just to remind myself :0) I find the best way to handle Ice and Snow
is in
front of a large fire sipping an Irish Coffee. Terry
..........................................
We live in a mountainous area that gets frequent snow in the winter. In fact,
there
are more 4 wheel drive vehicles per capita in our area than anywhere in the
nation.
We also import people from Caleefornia by the gobs each year as people escape
the flatland's politics and taxes.
So each year we get to see nice new shiny 4x4 pick-m-up truck speeding along
the
icy highway, headed for the certain realization that, although the truck will
go better
in the snow, it will not stop any better in the snow. It is truly a sight to
behold.
Dave
