More Snow Pictures

Here's what our office looked like yesterday afternoon...


And here's what the house looked like this morning...



The amount of snow we got down here is nothing compared to what my friend a couple of hours north experienced...she has 23 inches of snow!!! We "only" have six inches.

Let It Snow

Not that I have any choice in the matter...




We've had another inch or so since these photos were taken before I headed off to work this morning. Everything is looking very pretty and white.

I Drive in a Demolition Derby

On Saturday I got to drive in a Demolition Derby race, also known as full-contact racing. The track is in a dirt rodeo ring, so you really don't get any significant speed going. But it was a blast! I drove in what is called a "Powder Puff" race for people who don't drive very much. It was my first time and I had tons of fun!!!

I started in the fifth position (which means I had to pass four other cars to win). About the second lap around I blew the front-right tire which made going around corners very hard. But despite the handicap, I did make it past three of the cars and finished about three car lengths behind the winner. And I got to bump several people around it the process. Lots and lots of fun. We got it on video which I hope to post sometime.

Below is a picture of the hat the car's owner/driver gave to me after the race. He said I did a very good job of driving.

My Comment: Interesting. I doubt "pacifist" and "shy temperament" are very high on the list of terms most people would use to describe me.
