[Hotler]

76. Yes, it is a big dumping of snow here.

I bet I got about 20-inches here at my house.. We used to winter camp here when I was in Boy Scouts. I was born here and learned early how to drive in it. I learned with a 2-wheel drive pickup with good studed snow tires (not all season) with 300lbs. in the back and did just fine. Now I have a 3/4 ton 4-wheel drive with snows on all four with 300lbs in the back and do really well. The people that are getting stuck 50ft. out of their diveway are the ones with worn out plain jane radials. Even all-season tires are worthless in anything over an 1/2 inch of snow around here, mud & snow tires are iffy also. You need a true snow tire like Blizzak's to be prepared. Tansy I'm doing fine and I'm being safe. Thanks for caring. You guys are the best intertube friends ever. I wish we lived closer to each other so we could get together for food & drink.
