As my plane teetered into Salt Lake City's airport, I was greeted with a blanket of snow and an icy wind. I naviagated my way through the airport even though the signs were a bit confusing and headed to pick up my rental car. The lady from National was really sweet and we had a nice little conversation as she got me my car. The conversation was mostly centered around how apprehensive I was to drive in the snow again. I mentioned that I was really glad that this time I at least had a Chevy Malibu and it was a gentle snowfall as opposed to the last time I had to drive in the snow, when it was a blizzard and I was armed only with a KIA Rio...much better.
As I approached the car, I saw an object that once again made me glad that I have lived my life in warm climates. Never will I ever want to have an ice scraper be a necessary piece of equipment in my car.
I threw my bags in the car and headed off to my hotel.
Pulling out of the parking garage, I quickly learned that the defrost needs to be on when the snow is actually falling. I learned this lesson as I noticed the lines in the road gradually disappear and I no longer knew if I was still in the right lane, or a lane at all. So as quickly as possible I cranked up the heated defrost.
I actually began to be able to see the road again so the next obstacle was getting over my fear of driving in the snow. I would be lying if I said that for the first few miles I wasn't driving like a 80 year old in Boca, but hey, don't judge, I almost died twice in an hour last January in Minnesota.
It took a little while but finally I was able to drive at a normal speed and arrived at my hotel safe and sound. I picked up the stuff that had been shipped to the hotel for me, ordered some pizza and settled in for the night.
