Ice Walking

Very nice coating of ice on all the sidewalks (and streets) today. Well, not so nice if you have to be out driving. But for me it was a great opportunity to add some test walking time on my "Get-A-Grip" footwear. They worked very well as almost the entire 3.2 mile route was an ice challenge. This product was just a good purchase decision and stands head and shoulders above the YakTrax.

Watching the Vikings right now it seems as though they may be wanting to do all they can to hurt themselves as the end of the first half approaches. Well, perhaps they'll have luck and will win despite themselves (or Philadelphia will try to give it away ... hehe). Thus goes Wildcard Weekend in the NFL.
