I LOVE THE SNOW! Everythi...Man, I completely agree. I LOVE THE SNOW! Everything gets quieter and slower for a time. Here in Rolla, we missed the brunt of it, though Renee said it rained six inches in one day down in Arkansas last week (and over 100 inches this year). <br /><br />My own personal problem with snow is if I have to get out, my cheap old truck isn't built for cold. The door handle button is plastic, the windshield wipers are thin, and the small cab takes half an hour to heat up while driving. Maybe if I had one of these new oceanliner trucks, but then the taxes would kill me. Oh, and the payments wouldn't be made either, so I guess that fantasy just vanished. <br /><br />What I do wish is that old people, viz., grandma, would get the hell of the icy/snowy road! She already drives 18mph around town, topping out at 22 on the long straightaways, but in snow, she also drives in the middle of the road. Apparently she missed the great "Nursing Home Die-Off of 2009" and is out to kill herself by taking the rest of us with her!<br /><br />Hang in there, and hope for more snow this year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
