I like Bobs honesty. I’m gaining on you Tim, 20 to go and I’m there.

Black ice does suck though. I came off our deck once and hit it and I swear I was completely horizontal about a foot off the sidewalk and the first thing to hit was the back of my head. Still hurts just thinking about it.

Sorry Tim about your fall, as long as you didn't get hurt all is good, but I did check with USGS and they did record a slight tremor this morning in the Indiana PA area.

Ka zinggggggg......

had that happen last year, was out shopping with my wife and on the way home just had to stop for a pit stop, and too cold out to "find a tree" along the side of the road (ha ha)
so I stopped at a Speedway gas station. On the way back to the Jeep, I stepped off the sidewalk with my 1st foot/ and as SOON as I picked up my 2nd foot, down I went.:angry::bash2: elbows hit the ice covered asphalt, head hit the concrete sidewalk that I had just stepped off of.... and was slick enough I couldn't hardly get up off the ground.... I'm not that big, 5'11 and 225#.....

As they say, it ain't the fall, but the sudden stop that hurts. Glad you're still with us, and not broken up in a hospital.
Did you get up and look around, to see if anyone was watching?:biggrin2:
Been awhile since I slipped and fell on the ice.:biggrin2: But have been wheeling up a ramp, the wheels spin, and fall out frontwards. But, that's another story.:bigthink:
