We got about 3 in of the white stuff last night. The bad part is that it was a very wet snow so the roads were a sheet of ice. When normally takes me about 45 mins to get home from work took 2 hours last night. :banghead: The highway was shut down for about a half an hour while they cleaned up an accident and (I'm not sure but I hope they did) lay down some salt. When they finally opened the road back up you couldn't touch the gas without sliding sideways. I've been driving for 24 years now, 15 of which were in CT(were I learned how to drive), I lived in Maine for a while and have never had anything close to the mess I drove through last night. I can't even tell you how many accidents I passed on the way home. You gotta love the south. The whole way home I only saw two trucks that may have been salting and I'm not ever sure they were doing that.
Oh well on with some pics from around the house.

we got about 2 inches here in Ringgold but the roads were not bad, just wet and slushy. Its pretty here this morning with all the snow and the sun shinning on it.

I rode the busa to work yesterday thinking it would blow around like it typically does. I was wrong! Lol. Riding in a snow storm wasn't fun AT ALL. Makes for great pics though. Ill post em up in this thread when I get home

Looks purdy. Heres what it looked like out my front door on wed. nite. We ended up with 18" of the flaky white stuff. Thankfully the company I drive for called off deliveries for the nite.

You're not the only one that was out on his bike. Just as I was getting to work I saw a guy pulling out on his goldwing in very heavy snow. :laugh:

I would take that anyday over the crap we got. Atleast you didn't have to drive in it. :bowdown:
