[ST] Rain vs. Snow

Sign me up for those who would prefer snow. We have a small creek 
that runs through our backyard, and conditions downstream keep 
causing it to overflow, spilling silt all over our yard.

My front yard New Year's Day:

Never even got it cleaned up from the flood last winter.

I did finally get the KLR out for a ride on Sunday. Went up the ridge 
to take pictures in the snow. But the Sprint has been tethered to the 
Battery Tender for most of the last month because I simply can't get 
it down my driveway. Anybody who has dealt with river silt knows how 
slippery it is, and Dunlop 220s simply aren't made to deal with it.
