When I see snow falling, it's like the roads are covered in GOLD

Since I got off work last night, I've put over 100 miles on my car, and haven't gone further then 10 miles from the city, I just goto abandoned spots/lots around the city ,and slide around, trying to improve my snow drifting skills and what not. Once I picked up my friend, I decided that I needed to know what hills I could climb up in 6 inches of snow, and I never found one that I got stuck on.

And downtown Cincinnati is in a valley, so it's like mini San Francisco, in that there are hills EVERYWHERE, steep looong ones, s turns, everything.... it was the best night/morning of my life (almost).

no tickets, no dings/curbed wheels, just smiles...

tonight my friend and I will be taking a pile of cones to an industrial parking lot and setting up different types of turns, and obstacles to have fun on, so I can't wait.


Does anyone else feel like it's christmas when it's snowing?

like, any township or local cops are *******s, like they should be. But city police, just have too much to worry about, they don't waste their time on petty stuff, like a car sliding around in a massive empty lot to a business that's been closed for 20 years. There's a lot of vacant buildings since the industrial age around here is dying out, so they usually just pull in and tell us to leave.

it's pretty cool.
