I was just in Ann Arbor on business. We drove in through a snow storm Monday night and back through some insane lake effect snow Tuesday night. I've driven through some pretty crazy stuff - blizzards in New Mexico, Colorado, Iowa.......nothing was like this. I couldn't see ten feet ahead of the truck. I told Cheryl - "I seriously can't see anything.". I knew there was a semi behind us and who knows what ahead. I couldn't pull over for fear of getting hit, but I was worried we were going to hit someone who spun out. I had to hug the rumble strips just to hear where I was at. Thankfully it subsided after about 5 minutes.

What were your snow totals?

I haven't started yet Marcus. Little short on cash. I'm going to sell off a bunch of Indian blankets and load up on funds. Then I'm going to ramp up my business plan.

Those storms sound horrible, Bob. Tie down your capital before you start, good plan!

That stretch of I-94 in the west end of the state can be treacherous when it comes to snow .. there have been many multiple car/truck accidents there ... one a few weeks ago was bad and a couple of years ago there was a 90 vehicle accident ... I've got a friend who works for the highway dept in the winter ( he owns his own excavating business ) and he tells some scary stories of the accidents along that stretch
