ONE of my new CHALLENGES

Well this is my new Challenge. It's very exciting, challenging, (for me), and FUN! Really. I laugh out loud at myself and other drivers around me. It's a little scary, but Scary is good sometimes. Like driving a Nascar 190 mph, skiing down hill, doing a back flip on the balance beam. I do wish I had my 1985 Bronco with me here. I love my big 4 wheel drive, with big tires on it. (too bad it needs some work done on it.) The heater works good though.
Here's a couple of things that I learned so far.
Pretend you have no brakes. (because they don't work very good.)
Remember when you turn, the car doesn't always want to, so you have to be gentle and c0ax it a little.
If you don't push off all the snow on the hood bef0re you start out it's like having snow balls thrown at your windshield. Hilarious!
In Arizona when I was growing up, we use to throw oranges, and water balloons at cars and then run in hide. (is that bad?)
You have to leave or plan on 15 minutes extra just to get out of your driveway. Especially is you have no garage or covered parking. Which I have neither.
ANYWAY- HAVING A GREAT TIME IN SLC, UT!!
WEEEEEE....

Is that the angel that stopped Abraham from sacrificing Issac?

I hope the soup was good! Did you remember to use the mint?

Yes that is Abraham & angel.
And no, I forgot about the mint. I dont' think I've ever cooked anything with mint. Darn it! I wish I could taste your broth. I just don't have all the spices. Some are expensive to buy all at once, so I try to get some here & there. It was good. Greg had 2 bowls & so did I. Thanks

My favorite part of driving in the snow-sliding through the turn. Scares the crud out of me everytime.
