LOL!

Yup, that's me!  Untrained DC idiot who has no idea how to drive in snow!

At least I know what I don't know.  When it snows, I walk.  Heavy LL Bean
boots are great in the snow, don't need studs or chains, no worrying about
what's legal, last a long time, nice and toasty warm.  Just tromp along
making snowballs and playing as you go!

Really safe, lots of fun.
