Around Town:   Highway 522 is mostly wet with a few icy sections and some snow covered areas here and there.  So care should be taken.  Seems every year with the first snow fall comes accidents.  Reason being folks aren’t used to it and figure they can drive at the same speeds as when the highways are dry.  So my friends leave early to go where ever your heading and drive slower. Doing so you will have more control of your vehicle which will keep you safe.   The fringe benefit of all this is that you can now take in what nature has to offer.  As with all the snow hanging from the trees it is just beautiful.  Amazes the mind one could say.  But keep your eyes on the road too.  Enjoy your day my friends, stay warm and safe.   You can reach me George Walters at… [email protected]
