If anyone is looking for some accelerated evo on their jeans, attempting to fit snow chains in two-foot deep snow helps, as @Giles can confirm from the pool of indigo he left near the front left tyre of our hire car this morning…
That's so weird I had to deal with snow chains today too. I had to rent some to get inside Sequoia National Park. I rented the smallest tire size because I had no intention on actually using them. What a coincidence. ???

I'm picturing grey tires with red Triple Works W's on the side walls. I held a pair of the Iron Heart socks yesterday and they are insanely awesome. Glad you guys made it okay and are safe.

Surprised by that. I don't think snow chains are even legal on cars in Norway any more due to the damage they do to roads, and to the quality of studded and non-studded winter tyres. Only lorries and trucks over a certain tonnage can have them and even then only when strictly necessary.

My in-laws are insane. They're discussing whether they should drive from Houston back to Las Vegas instead of flying. Why are they considering a 1,500 mile drive, you ask? So he can take his guitar back with him, and it's too expensive to check an extra piece of luggage…
-
whoa… sounds like a good excuse to buy another guitar.

I checked Southwest's baggage policy- you can check a guitar like regular luggage, and they allow two bags for free. So the guitar would cost them nothing to take back versus a three day drive with attendant gas, food, lodging, etc. costs.
All he needs to do is buy a decent hard case for the guitar (which he should have bought years ago anyway).

I got moderated it looks like. I'm sorry if I offended anybody. My bad.

but why not. that's the question!! i'd pick driving over flying anytime for that distance. it's so much more fun!! i recently did 1400km in a day. and roughly 3500km in total spanning 5 days

I concur, can't enough of them!

My Dad almost died last week. This time last week I was basically saying my goodbyes.
On Friday he went into a hospice (a truly amazing place with some incredibly hard working people).
Went to see him this evening and he has made such a remarkable recovery that he is going to be going home!
Nice to see him on good form but incredibly fucking bewildering considering we were told he had days to live!
