Snow tips that make you seem like a local!

Hi All!
It's been awhile since I posted on my blog. I'm trying to become disciplined again so that you have something to actually read that has some content.

I've decided to post some weather pics of the snow we recently got. We are also getting some new snow this evening so I am stoked about that but not real excited to shovel the darn stuff.

Here are some Mountain tips that I recommend when you are making the trip up here in the Winter and there's snow on the ground.

1. BRING CHAINS/I don't care if you have a 4wd just put them in your trunk because you don't want to have to turn around when the Cal Trans guys stop you. Trust me.

2. BRING CLOTHING FOR COLD WEATHER. That means Gloves, a beanie, serious snow boots (leave your flip flops at home), waterproof pants and a warm ski jacket. Layer, Layer, Layer!

3. CAR SICKNESS: If you are prone to getting car sick be the Designated Driver.

4. USE THE TURNOUTS....Let someone else kill themselves if they are in a hurry! What do you care? You're actually going to live to enjoy your vacation.

5. DON'T STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD TO PUT YOUR CHAINS ON! I repeat: Do NOT stop in the middle of any street, road, lane in the mountains to put your chains on! In fact: If you have to pull over to put them on PLEASE move as far to the right as possible. You end up holding up traffic and you might get runover!

6. USE HIGHWAY 38 and HWY 18 ON BUSY WEEKENDS
When you are heading back home depending on where you live, please don't use the 330. It will take you forever to get home. EVERYONE uses the 330 because it is the most popular way up here.

7. EXPECT TRAFFIC ON THE WEEKENDS There. Now that I've prepared you, you won't get all twisted about having to wait at the stop lights or the restaurants. And please let people merge into the traffic. It helps prevent road rage and it's just plain nice and kind.
