I've been driving in MI for 23 years & I married into a family that does ag hauling, so here's my best #winterdriving advice:
1. Slow down. The speed limit is for clear, dry pavement. Snow =/= clear OR dry.
2. The fastest safe speed differs for each car and driver. Don't let someone tailgate you into going faster than YOU can control YOUR vehicle.
3. Four wheel drive will not help you stop. SLOW. DOWN.
4. Watch semis. They see further than you. If they suddenly slow down, join them.

Happy Birthday #CoSo !!
I am forever thankful to have met so many interesting people here over the last five years.
We've laughed, we've cried, we've celebrated, we've supported, and we've gotten into some onery mischief along the way. What fun it has been!
Along the way we've made long lasting friendships I'm positive would never have happened if not for COSO.
Here's to each of you and to @th3j35t3r for bringing us together. Happy Birthday COSO! 🍾 🥂 🎉
Let me wrap this up, have to go make breakfast for me & my lady.
It’s rare for me to name an artist who never made a song I didn’t like. Though I’ve had all his albums for years, the internet & YouTube has brought all those ‘previously unknown to me’ versions of his craft right into my home. I never get tired of listening to or singing the hits of this virtuoso of blues.
Here’s one of my favorites.

National exposure evaded Stevie until he finally formed his own band Double Trouble in the very late ‘70s. I wouldn’t hear of him for another half decade, me being busy with a new family. Soon they would be popping out album after album chock full of fabulous originals & covers that took Texas Blues to another level. In The Beginning was not his first album. He didn’t get a record deal until after the Montreux festival. It signaled his arrival on the American blues scene.

Stevie’s transition from a shy wannabe guitar star to a premiere Texas Blues frontman took a while. He didn’t take the conceptual path of his big brother Jimmie. Jimmie was good, but his style failed to hold the interest of the Austin crowd. I myself like Jimmie and his work with The Fabulous Thunderbirds. But he didn’t have the knack for blues like Stevie. Though they would both rise to prominence at the same time, Stevie stormed past Jimmie quickly.

It’s near impossible for me to pick a favorite SRV tune. There are so many. When I first heard Stevie I was already past my concert-going years. It felt an instant connection with the dude. He was only a year older than I, playing & singing these blues/rock songs that just resonated. I finally got to see Stevie in concert just 2 years before his sudden death. It was at Red Rocks Amphitheater right here in Colorado.

If you really believe the news that Fox and Murdoch have abandoned cheeto face?
You need to adjust your meds.
I saw how it will be yesterday, by the way CNN worded their report on his ‘announcement’. It’s the same ole game.
The count for CO-03 hasn’t moved for days and in the background I can hear the drums beating:
DOOM DOOM DOOM
I should probably delete this but I won’t.
I wish we could send tfg up in that moon launch.
