Early Tuesday morning Sarah was coming home from work. She gets out at 1:00am...ack! Well, she was doing fine until she was 3/4 of the way down this small hill close to our house. She was NOT going fast, but had to brake for a stop sign at the bottom the the hill. The road was a sheet of ice and as she applied her brakes she slid into a snowbank. Not far. Only about 1 foot. Since the road was so icy there was no way she could get enough traction to back out. Plus she would be backing out...up the hill.
She walked about one half of a mile home at about 2:00am. I did NOT like that. She has a cellphone. I bet it needed a charge. :(
Luckily, Greg was home and in less than 15 minutes he was able to help her get out.
I hate icy roads. We have them now. I'm staying put unless it warms up. Please! You do the same.
I have no clue how to drive with icy roads. I remember some bad scenes from my earliest childhood when I lived in Greensburg, PA.
I am enjoying an early spring here. Things are beginning to bud.
Oh my, that is scary.
