snow day

Typical snow day today. Oracles at our national weather station predict 18 inches of snow before midnight, but we only got 4 inches so far, could be tip of the ice berg. Word of caution for those on full size SUV's or any SUV for that matter, I'm sure your steel tank with the four wheels engaged gets you the respect of the road, but you need to respect the laws of physics especially with that few inches snow on the ground. This morning I went to pick up the wifey from work, there was an inch of snow already when I started. Trip on route 1 was like cutting through the butter, I didn't hurt anyone and my truck wasn't hurt in the process. On my way back home I took a sharp turn at the intersection close my house and found myself with my truck sitting on my neighbors yard narrowly missing a tree. I was riding ~20 mph when I took the turn, can't imagine what snow can do for you.
