Driving in Tennessee Snow

 I grew up in the north.  I was born and spent my first 13 years, roughly, in the south side of Chicago, the neighborhood of Canaryville.  When I was going into 8th grade, my family moved to the suburbs of Chicago, Alsip.  

From there, after the divorce from my first marriage, I headed east into Indiana.  It didn't hurt that I had family all through different parts of Indiana.  

Needless to say, I have driven in snow many times, for many winters, and through many storms.  

I still remember a bad snow storm we had in Indiana when Skye was younger.  I lived 45 minutes to an hour from where I worked.  The snow was so bad that they let me leave work early, before the roads got any worse.  Despite leaving early, it still took me over 3 hours to get home.  The blinding snow was creating blowing snow drifts across the road causing blizzard like conditions.  I couldn't go any faster than 30 miles an hour and that was pushing it.  

The snow here in Tennessee is different.  Mainly, because they don't usually get any.  This year was different I guess.  Come with me as I drive through the snow, running errands before the snow really hit.  I removed the sound, private conversations during the drive you know, and added some music.

Before you start worrying, I had my phone on a stand attached to my dash board.  I did not drive and film.  That is just too dangerous.
