Okay so I heard on the radio a snow storm was suppose to hit today. I drag out the ladders and boxes and take down all the decorations. I just finished putting up the snow fences when it starts. I was late getting them up hoping I wouldn't need them this year. Its coming down so hard its almost a whiteout. Man I hate Ohio winters!

I was doing ok until i approached "deadmans curve",then the real fun started.An S turn which curves uphill and is banked and also passes under an an Interstate bridge and another bridge which passes over railroad tracks 3/4 of the way up the hill.There was two cars in the ditch on both sides of the road at the bottom and two trucks stopped in my lane to help them. I had to go around them and start up the hill with some dude in a 4 wheeler right on my butt.As i'm slipsliding up the hill,there is another truck that has slid into the guardrail halfway up and is blocking the lane.As i'm trying to pass him,i start fishtailing and sliding towards him.I barely miss him and continue creeping up the hill.Then comes the railroad bridge which is a sheet of ice and i start sliding toward the bridge rail.I finally made it up the hill and started down and up another set of hills.I turn left at the top,only one more ice covered hill to go down.
It took me a little over an hour to drive that 10 miles so i averaged less than 10 mph,lol. I hate winters with icey and snowcovered roads.
