I moved here from Wisconsin; last year I spent spring break burried in 18 inches of snow (in late March)--so a little sheet of ice is no problem. I can walk normal and fast speeds on the stuff, just takes a little practice (I have 8 years of it). People in DC freak out a bit too much about weather, I'd give my right hand to see what happens if we got a -30 blizzard with a foot of snow here, haha... :-)
I slipped and almost fell. My tall, slender Great Dane slipped once, then again and finally both back legs went out from under him and my beautiful boy now has a sore rump. =(
Originally from Pittsburgh so totally used to the snow -- not sure how I did it but completely lost my feet out from underneath me and landed on my head. Hurt like a mother.....
not only did i fall, i slipped down about 4 steps on the escalator at the metro.
No, people from New England stop slipping on ice at the age of four.
We also spend a few million dollars more per year on rock salt, but, you know, hennngh.
