    far from here
    Coming back from a meet up with another INGO member lost control and hit a guard rail. Doing about 60 MPH hit a slick spot did a couple 360’s, felt the wheels lift of the ground, came close to rolling it then slammed into the guard rail. After making sure I was ok and checking my shorts I was able to drive home. Now I have to contact my agent Monday
    Be careful out there.

    I had a death grip on the wheel. I thought for sure I was going to roll it doing 60. Jeep is drivable but damage to the bumper, right fender and a few other thing.
    My shorts are another story, I don’t think they can be fixed.
    Vehicles can be fixed. Glad you're ok!

    I remember an ice storm causing a blackout when I lived in Muncie. Sounds like this one caused you a brownout.

    Its bad down here too Doggy. Stay home.

    Southport road bridge over white river was closed until they could get salt on it. I was on Mendenhall and went to slow down to turn and just keeeeeeept going. I didnt need to turn there anyway. LOL

    I was going to stay there and do a thing, but grabbed the parts and took them home to work on it before roads got any worse.

    Wife just got back home, safely thankfully. She said it`s a sheet of ice out there and nothing she saw that was treated. She has an AWD vehicle, but nothing helps on ice!

    Just drive home to the east side of Indy from Noblesville and saw several crashes and a pick up in the ditch. I noticed on 465 south of Pendleton Pike to Shadeland had some salt down. Once off the interstate it was pretty much a solid sheet of ice.
    Wish I could just stay in the rest of the evening but I have to go out and pick my son up from work in about an hour. That should be fun too
