black ice and ice melt

since the blizzard we have been enjoying lots of sunshine despite the unbearably icy winds. the good news is all of the snow is melting off the streets making it easier to travel. the bad news is once the sun goes down, all that liquid snow turns to black ice. so please be careful when hurrying about today but most importantly, have a very merry christmas. and if you don't celebrate christmas, I hope you have the day off!
