Ice driving is a blast. I highly recommend going if you have the chance.

Does anybody have videos/pics of today's ice driving event?

I found out about the event yesterday evening and thought I would go to watch but completely forgot today until I was driving back home after a sumptuous brunch.

I was just thinking the same thing. Had to put something out in the garage yesterday and there she sits, waiting for salt season to be over . . .
