Icy Sidewalks Make for Fun DC People Watching

We had our first good snow last week. It was immediately followed by icy rain. Ice covered the city from top to bottom. Even though it was 50 degrees and sunny yesterday, like 5 days after the icing, you still had to watch out for slick patches.

This is one of the sidewalks near my apartment. It was one huge sheet of ice. Sadly, I didn't manage to catch anyone wiping out. I almost wiped out three times on the way to work that day. It was like we were all wearing those sneakers with the skate wheels built in.

Sadly, they did not close anything. I was really looking forward to my first snow day ever. I guess I'll just have to hope for a better storm.
