On the flipside, we had a little incident just the other night out at the corner. Nasty hill comin' down to it, about 15% with a right hand curve before you get to the corner at the bottom.
So it was snowin' out and I see the red lights over at the corner and go to investigate and provide adult supervision.
There was a brand new (paperplates even) 4wd Durango up on its side and right athwart of the road. Most folks that lose it on that curve go straight and shoot off the outside of the curve and wind up in my neighbor's back field, sometimes rubber side down, sometimes not. I guess this gal got spinnin' before she ever got into the curve, as she went off the right, over the ditch and took out a light pole before finding her way back to the road where she flipped.
Luckily, nobody got hurt, but the driver was quite outraged that her 4WD was defective, because she knew she had it on, something that the trooper verified. (I can alnmost read the lawsuit!) Havin' it and not usin' it to get squared away is one thing. These drones that have it and think they can drive like they're on a dry road run me nuts. I think there is often a sticker on the sun-visor that explains that your 4WD vehicle has the same brakes as a 2WD, and one should not get carried away, and should exercise caution in conditions that require its use. I suppose as long as no one gets hurt I can laugh. Otherwise, I think it's pretty sad.

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
