Blizzard!

This weekend we got a "blizzard" according to the news. It was a fun time. I did some Mt. Bohemia boarding which was awesome. Very much powder and I was throwing down some natural 180's and 360's. It was cold as crap though. High Saturday was 3 degrees. I also almost got into 3 accidents. Seriously 3! People need to learn how to drive on the snow/ice. Roads were really bad but come on. The first one a guy thought he should be driving in my lane as I was going around a curve. Very nice of him. The second one This guy thought that break lights aren't important and I didn't realize he was stopping and had to drive up onto the curb to avoid him. The third one I thought I was done for. I was driving down 41 towards the school. This guy blows right through the stop sign by Wells Fargo. So he is sliding threw the intersection and I am like "OHHHHHH CRAP!" Mind you the roads are solid snow/ice. I try to stop but it is having none of it. So I try to turn and avoid him. I start sliding at an angle and it doesn't look good at all. The back end was about to get pullverized by this guy. I try to correct it so the back end will swing around the other way. At the last second it kicks around and I make it past the guy. Missing him by meer inches. The truck then just decides that it should try to stop by driving up the snow bank at Wells Fargo. It was successful. They pull over to make sure I was ok. Everything ends up being ok. Good ole Houghton weather.
