Here are a couple shots from the day I bought my house... nothing like closing on a house in snow.

what kills me is that is wasn't even bad?? I live in in the boonies and drive 2 lane blacktop country roads for 85-90% of my drive to work and had no issues at all.

what happened was that modot (missouri department of transpotation) salted the highways too early (around 6 am or so) by the time the snow started falling the salt and brine solutions had been disolved and thrown from the highway causing icy conditions (ive got a friend in modot and he told me this)

it was funny seeing a misda (spellling?) going sideways overreving
