Quattro weather!

Snow has finally arrived here in the mountains of southern WV.  My huskies 
love it and so do I!

Wednesday my wife and I drove from DC to Oglebay Resort at Wheeling, WV for 
a couple of days of what I will euphemistically call R&R and then Friday we 
came on home.  The entire trip involved what most would regard as nasty 
weather.  Rain at first on Wednesday followed by snow and snow covered 
roads for the rest of the trip.  The quattro handles those conditions with 
ease.  I was able to comfortably (and perfectly under control) cruise at 
speeds at least 15 mph above that of mere cars and 4 by 4's.  The main 
caution is to watch the traffic and conditions far enough ahead in order to 
permit action appropriate for the "then current laws of physics".  :-)  A 
lowered coefficient of friction requires a greater stopping distance.

This morning I look out to see at least 6-8 inches of new overnight 
snow.  Let's go quattroing!
