The snow was coming down, Lucy and Cole were standing in the front window watching. A car started to pass in front of our house and started getting slower and slower, it's back wheels spinning as fast as could be.
Mom: "Uh oh! Guys look!"
"What's happening?!?!" Lucy inquired.
Mom: "That car can't make it up the hill!!
It's slipping on the ice."
Lucy, "oh no! What are we going to do?"
Cole: "oh no, thas nod dood!"
Lucy, "What happens if he goes backward?" How will he get up?"
The conversation repeated itself in a variety of ways for a few minutes as we watched the car try to get up the hill, and eventually give up as it slowly backed down again.
We all sat as watched as a few more cars tried to brave the hill. Some managed better than others. Until eventually Devin went out to spread some salt on the road. Finally the plows showed up and the show ended.
