February 4, 2011 - San Antonio, TX

My drive to work - which included a harrowing 180 degree slide at the
intersection of Austin Highway and N. New Braunfels. Thankfully travelers
this morning were leaving plenty of room between one another and I
managed to miss the other two cars, already sitting in various positions
at the intersection. I had quit taking pictures because the roads were bad
on Austin Highway - and worse on Broadway....I was glad to arrive at work -
ONE hour and 20 minutes to travel 18 miles....I'm thinking it's a good
thing San Antonio doesn't experience this very often ;o)
