The time of year has come when the white stuff has begun to fly, just a reminder to all the first responders, slow down and take your time when the road conditions warrant. Remember you are no good to anyone else if you too become part of the problem. I have also made commenting public, so please feel free to comment on this post or any of the past ones. I would love to hear from you out there.
