here's what I came home to today - subdivision is a total skating rink. a mix of black and white ice. The only "snow" was on the shoulders. The main roads were okay but the secondary roads got no salt / brine so they were pretty slick. Our house is just over the knoll of this hill but luckily there is a way through "around back" that has a couple of more gradual hills so I didn't have to hike in. My wife snapped some pics of the kids sledding, and we all went out after dinner to have a go at it. We had one sled, pizza boxes, and used up two pool inner-tubes. (they don't last as long as sno-tubes, too thin) Photo taken from about 1/3 the way up the hill, which Ts onto another road, with a driveway across the way to make things interesting. I almost suggested the folks move the cars from their driveway in case some knuckle head decides to try to go down it in the morning, but then I realized if the cars weren't in the driveway, the runway car would hit their house instead... bit of a bad location... house and 25' driveway lined right up with the hill across the street.
