I called my husband on the way to work yesterday...
"Why on EARTH do we have to drive when it is snowing and icy out like this...there ought to be a law."
"Preaching to the choir babe."
"Plus, I am convinced Brooklyn Center does not own a plow."
And all I could think of the whole way into the office as I moved at a glacial pace* was how if I were Governor of Minnesota I would make it illegal to drive if the driving conditions were such that if it took you more than twice the time normal to drive there - or you could potentially die because it is so darn slippery!
Then of course I think of how that would hurt our economy, and how there would have to be all kinds of exceptions. Doctors, pregnant ladies, sick people, etc.
Sigh.
And as I got to the last part of my drive where 694 and 10 split...
I see the plows in my rear view mirror.
At least my drive home was fine. And yes, *I used glacial on purpose.

While I'm sure it's no where near as bad here as it is there, I totally agree!!! Our roads get really nasty in the winter too.
Goes to show that you are a trailblazer.
