Ugh, you guys are killing me!

I'll post this in the new thread, just for Don and all of the other snow lovers!

Did somebody say snow? Went for a ride with a friend of mine today. From Corvallis, to Burnt Woods, to Harlan, up the back side of Mary's Peak. Lots of fun!

I joke with my wife that driving a hybrid has a risk that suddenly I'm going to think Obama is a swell president.

Nah, not going to happen!

It is a bit interesting to drive. The Escape Hybrid is much better than the Prius in the start / stop shudder. I'm learning some of the quirks on getting it to do what I want. It will really freaking go, especially at highway speeds.

It's great in the snow and ice. A lot of cars have bad anti-lock at low speed but Ford got this one right.

Wow! Just got in from our annual get-together down here.

At least I got to post on the first page of Oregon's New Year!

That is, of course, if you have it set to forty posts per page.

And, I got to be the first to actually post on January First.

Best wishes to all of you for the coming year. At least the world isn't scheduled to end this year like it was in the last one!!!
