The roads had snow on them and I was petrified and couldn't imagine crashing that car. I walked. Had a Texas winter jacket and froze. The locals said they were having a mild winter. I can't imagine living somewhere it gets that cold or snows.
When I was working I rented more cars than I can remember. I wish I had all the phone chargers I left behind in them. I loved the Hertz Gold rentals. I would look for my name on the board and find my car location, and the car would be running with the a/c or heater on, the trunk open, and the paperwork setting on the dash. Ahhh, those were the days......
