@lioness My son and I were just talking about how people have become such weather wimps! A little bit of snow and everyone panics. When I was young people still went about their business. I don't recall my father ever not going to work because of snow, and the ironic thing is that now we all have four-wheel drive cars so they are supposed to be better in the snow! Back then it was just snow tires.

My dad hauled eggs and cream for the town creamery. He got snowed in over night at a restaurant in the middle of no where one time! He did get home the next day, thankfully.

@contentandwell So true!! Why moan and groan over something we have no control over. I think of major disasters due to nature and wonder why the whining over an inch of snow?? I fortunately do not have to venture out. Maybe I am being self-centered. No ice on the trees, the utility lines in these high winds. I even put sunflower seeds out where they are accessible to the squirrels.

@contentandwell So true I did for along time then got a Subaru that had anti lock breaks and 4wheel automatically for snow. I drove in it every day ,for work,
