learn how to drive in the snow or ice

I used to say that since I’m of Mexican descent, that I was genetically allergic to snow. But I’ve always wanted to go ice-skating at Camp Curry in Yosemite Valley. I’ve been let down by friends in the past who said they would take me during the winter, so I’m thinking I need to do this myself. I want to learn to drive in the snow so I can take myself whenever I want.

Screw the chains, I LOVE my new studded snow tires! Everybody else was skidding around during the latest snow storm and I was perfectly fine. Of course that’s probably also because I went slow and everybody else tried driving like it was normal conditions. But studded snow tires? I LOVE YOU!

...and learn how to put on and remove snow chains without getting frustrated. Either that or cough up $500 for snow tires.
