It seems we had a bit more down here than Ted had up in Madison, I haven't been up to Madison, will be up there tomorrow.
Had to take a poorly plowed county highway to work yesterday. In the morning it wasn't plowed, but "Big Red", my S10 ZR2 did just fine.
Well, it was drifting quite a bit in the afternoon, I was having fun clipping drifts and so forth, passed an older guy in a pickup and kept going. Bit into a little bit more than I could chew on a bigger drift, and spun out, backwards but stayed right on the road, luckily no one was coming towards me. Snow flying everywhere and the drivers window completely plastered. Stopped facing the same way I came from. Drove straight ahead, it was pretty strange feeling. I think that guy on the Rockford Files used to do this on dry pavement! So, drove the way I didn't want to go, looking for a place to turn around and of course here comes the guy I had passed (I had gotten quite a ways ahead of him), looks at me weird of course. It was fun though. I took it a little easier in the place I had spun out.
